Experience
IEEE
Global Career Resources Product Manager
I served IEEE's 400,000+ global membership by overseeing global career resources. Through this goal, I pursued new products and services that can help members find a job, develop in their current position, and plan their career, while managing existing resources in a cross-departmental environment.
Project Management Institute (PMI)
Product Manager - Credentials
I managed the commercial success of four credentials (PMP, PMI-ACP, PMI-RMP, PMI-SP) at various points during my time at PMI, focusing on the management of the PMP. I championed these products with internal stakeholders to actively direct product marketing, brand, operations, and research. While doing so, I grew revenue for the PMP via marketing and communications campaigns (over/above organic product growth) and performed extensive international business development and stakeholder relations work, focusing on the developing world.
I also led development of a new credential (PMI-ACP) and managed the cross-functional team responsible for researching, business planning, development, pilot, and implementation. Resulted in largest pilot of a certification in PMI history with over 550 examinees in initial pilot.
