Shawanda is from Charlotte, North Carolina, and is enrolled in the MS in Project and Program Management (PPM) program.
She currently works as a Sr. Project Manager at Medidata Solutions, and she hopes to “seek a leadership role within her organization.”
When discussing the content she has learned throughout her courses, Shawanda explained how she utilizes these new PPM tools to help reach her personal goals and achieve professional success:
“This program has provided me with the necessary tools to improve my writing, researching, and analyzing skills as a Sr. Project Manager. Due to this program, I can now tackle extremely complex projects in a different way and it is all manageable.”
