I didn’t know it at the time, but being paired up with Brenda as part of a mentorship program at PMI Chicagoland Chapter would change the course of my career. Ever patient and dedicated she spent one summer with me coaching on my journey to become PMP certified. Prior to meeting her, I initially struggled with the exam on my first attempt. With her guidance, after 3 months of mentoring, I knew the material so well, that I passed the exam 45 minutes early. She is an amazing coach, friend, and mentor. I am forever grateful for the chance to have met Brenda and for the knowledge she imparted during our mentorship program."

Brenda was my mentor when I was just starting my career in project management. She taught me how to implement cross-functional projects with diverse stakeholders. In addition to on-the-job coaching, she tutored me in preparation of my CAPM exam and gave me the confidence to pass. The lessons I learned from her help me be a more efficient team member and directly contribute to the success of a project.
