We all know that the most gifted professors are those who unveil the joy of learning for students and bring out the best in them. There is not a person that I know who displays this particular gift more than Shelly Wright. She has a remarkable ability to stimulate students with her dynamic teaching style. They are enthralled during her classes and leave with a love of a subject that may have seemed mundane.

I have been working with Shelly for the last 6 years at UCI DCE. She is an excellent PM instructor, advisory board member and SME who was in charge of developing our final PM certificate program course. She is always a pleasure to work with and her professionalism is outstanding!
