Pam Melton - Director of Career Networking
Please join me in congratulating our September Volunteer of the Month, Pam Melton.
In her role as Director of Career Networking, Pam was the driving force behind our first networking event in May.
The event took considerable planning, creativity, and dedication.
Using her superb powers of persuasion, Pam assembled a small army of volunteers to orchestrate a memorable evening for all attendees.
Based on the positive response to the May networking event, Pam has been busy this summer developing a joint venture with the Eugene and Salem branches of PMI's Willamette Valley Chapter and the Portland based Program Management Forum (PMF).
The next 'Take the Work out of Networking' event is currently schedule for October with additional events slated for next year.
In her spare time, Pam also manages the Career Networking table at our monthly dinner meetings with the help of Terry Shane, who recently joined the Marketing team, and Jerry Young, Director of Jobs.
...
Pam moved to Portland earlier this year from Chicago and had the good sense to check-in with the local chapter of PMI where she was quickly recruited by the Marketing team.
Her positive attitude and infectious laughter serve her well as a Senior Interactive Project Manager with Pop Art, Inc.
She works exclusively on the Xerox account managing web-based projects for the Interactive Marketing department.
Pam has 12 years of Project Management experience and has worked with clients such as Disney, McDonald's, Kraft and PepsiCo.
When she is not planning the next PMI Career Networking event, Pam enjoys hiking on the Oregon coast, playing the piano, and spending time with her fiancé, Chris.
