1. President's Message
From Holly Ripley
Greetings Members,
Since the beginning of this year, many exciting activities have taken place at PMI NYC Chapter, including CDN Branding workshop, Interactive Chapter Meetings, Young Professionals Outreach Circles, Outreach Executive & PMO Roundtable, CDN Photo Shoot & Personal Image Workshop, a Chapter Meeting on Building an Agile Business, CDN Career Forum Panel, and more! We are looking forward to a major milestone event on June 15th to celebrate our 30-Year Anniversary with a memorable Cruise on the Hudson!
Thank you for your continued membership in our Chapter. Our Volunteer team knows that to deliver excellent events you will want to attend, we must have an enthusiastic team to engage you. With each Chapter Meeting that has passed this year, I have noticed an energy developing, which I call our "New Community". Our Chapter is evolving, driven by the Members and dedicated Volunteers.

Kristyn Medeiros, PMP, Senior Solutions Consultant
How are you getting the truth?
