This week, we sit down with Sara Seck , Army National Guard veteran and project management professional, to talk about how she turned hands-on experience into a thriving civilian career improving telehealth services at the VA.

Sara’s story is proof that you don’t need a four-year degree to build credibility and climb in project management. With experience, grit, and her PMP certification, she moved from managing individual projects to leading project managers and driving large-scale improvements in healthcare delivery.

In this episode, we cover:

• How Sara discovered project management while serving in the Guard

• What inspired her to pursue the PMP certification and how it opened new doors

• How she transitioned from project manager to managing other PMs

• The skills veterans already have that make them natural project leaders

• Common misconceptions about civilian project management careers

• Sara’s advice for veterans six months out from separation

Whether you’re still serving or already navigating civilian life, Sara’s journey will show you what’s possible when you leverage your experience and validate it with certification.
