PMIWDC

Hailing originally from Manila, Philippine Islands, Evangeline (Vanj to her friends) is a recognized subject matter expert in visual media. Her repertoire of professional skills includes graphics design, web design, animation, video production and editing, and marketing and communications. A card-carrying member of the PMIWDC since May of 2009, Vanj recently visited the USA for the most romantic of reasons; her very own wedding in Reston, VA. Congratulations to you and yours Vanj!

Although still basking in newlywed bliss, Vanj is pressing on with her entrepreneurial aspirations and is currently in the process of establishing her own business – Panache Media; a professional services firm catering to Project Management, Communications, Marketing, and the Visual Media markets.  Vanj expects her venture to be fully operational by January 2010. In parallel to her zeal for business Vanj is pursuing the coveted PMP certification and hopes to earn her credential before the end of the third quarter 2010.

Vanj became interested in volunteering for PMIWDC as a result of her experience (and whirlwind romance) working with (now husband) Don Weber supporting his presentation at the Asia-Pacific Global Conference. Vanj currently serves as the Marketing Manager of the Chapter-to-Chapter outreach program, and is the familiar voice behind the monthly Speakers Exchange Webinars.

In her spare time when she’s not busy globetrotting, running, biking, watching football, volunteering in church or swimming (she’s a busy lady!) Vanj pursues her other big passion - singing; she hopes to get involved in a musical production in the DC metro area soon.
