What does being an APMP Fellow mean to you?

Being an APMP Fellow means that I have the opportunity to share what I know with others.

What's your best memory from attending an APMP event?

The best memory from attending an APMP event is the opportunity to network with people I know or new people.

What advice do you have for a proposal professional entering our field?

Take advantage of every opportunity to learn. Listen to all. Participate in APMP events, webinars, and the like. Reach out to someone and ask them to mentor you.

You can expand your network by attending the local Chapter webinar and events. They provide an opportunity to collaborate with like-minded individuals locally to create and share consumable content, ideas, tools, and resources.

Being an active APMP certified practitioner allowed me to recognize my hidden potential multifold (40u40, BPC Awards, BPC Speaker) and give back to the profession through the APMP community.

With this micro-certification and digital badge, I signal to my bid team and stakeholders that I am familiar with this topic. They can use me as their contact and "sparring partner," independent of RFPs.

Acquiring the executive summary micro certification has helped to build my confidence in producing best practice Executive Summaries. I also benefit from the social media badge for my LinkedIn profile and certification to add to my resume. Both of these allow me to verify my Executive Summary capabilities.

During my association with APMP, I have been fortunate to have met and gathered wisdom from several industry stalwarts.
