Patti_Boer_2018.jpg Director, Member Experience

I have been in project management since 1997 and I became a certified Project Manager Professional (PMP) in April 2007. I have been a LEED Accredited Professional since March, 2008. I completed the Harvard School of Public Health Project Management in Health Care Certification Program in November 2012. I have worked for Spectrum Health for the past eight years and am currently serving the Priority Health campus as a Sr. Facilities Project Manager. I have project management experience in retail and educational design and construction, insurance, manufacturing and health care.

I served as the West Michigan Project Management Institute (WMPMI) Director of Volunteers from 2008–2011 and as the WMPMI VP Finance from May 2011 to December 2012. I had the honor of becoming the VP Membership in December 2012. The Membership Team is now lead by Patricia Brown-May as the VP Member Experience and I have moved into the Director of Member Experience. 

Since 2014 our chapter has seen record increases in the membership numbers as we exceeded the previous high of 707 members in June 2009 to 967 members in January 2018! It is rewarding to see our chapter growing as we are providing benefits to increasing numbers of project managers in our region.

I am excited about the opportunity to continue working with Patricia and the WMPMI membership to maximize the opportunities and benefits of being a member of WMPMI.
