KIMBERLY A. EATON

PMP, PMI-CPMAI

BIO

I was born and raised in New York and have lived and worked in other major cities; Austin, New Orleans, Greensboro, and now Cincinnati.

After earning a BA in Psychology at Roanoke College in VA, I returned to NYC to accept a position with UnitedHealthcare. As a Project Manager at UHG, I gained a tremendous amount of experience with designing and implementing a document management system that facilitated a smooth acquisition of AmeriChoice, a large privately-held Medicaid services provider. Additionally, I had the responsibility of updating and disseminating all policy and procedure manuals for the northeast region (NY, NJ, and PA) while maintaining regulatory compliance and audit-readiness.

Over the next ten years, I earned a Masters in Psychology from Adelphi University, opened and operated a small shop on the Outer Banks of NC (which transitioned nicely to e-commerce), and took on a variety of Project Management positions in healthcare. I settled in Cincinnati in 2014 and eventually took on the position of Project Manager with Park Place Business Improvement Strategies, where I have been mentored by Mary Willenborg, a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt.

I have earned a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, as well as the Certified Professional in Managing AI (PMI-CPMAI). 2026 will be dedicated to earning a Six Sigma Black Belt certification to maximize the value of my education and experience, and a Private Pilot License (PPL) just for fun.

Designed and implemented marketing and selling plans focused on promoting additional services that convert clients from short-term to long-term projects. Client retention increased by 40%, resulting in a 22% increase in revenue in year one, 27% in year two, and 30% in year three.

Training plan implementation resulted in reduced item misplacement and loss, a significant decrease in new employee turnover, and an increase in employee satisfaction related specifically to feeling fully prepared and having convenient access to informative resources.
