How do you play your strengths to your advantage in your career: Balancing the demands of being a competitive weightlifter, mother of a toddler, and architectural designer takes excellent project management skills. The ability to set goals, create an action plan, and have the discipline to execute the plan is essential. As a project manager, I apply the same principles of success when working with clients: developing the strategic goals for the project, creating a detailed project plan, and then executing the plan in a disciplined way.
My ability to juggle many balls in the air while hitting the milestones and never losing sight of the end goal ensures the project is a success and our clients are happy.
