Project Management Professional (PMP)®
25 July 2017: I passed my Project Management Professional (PMP)® exam today on my first try!
Combining my work experience with this certification, I can now be an even better project manager. It is my hope to continue to do my best and be a valued member at work. In this post, I'd like to chronicle my PMP journey.

When I was a kid in primary school, I loved participating in coloring contests. I’d buy magazines with my pocket money and the first thing I did was flip the mag to the contest page and started coloring. I’d then […]
