It is always great to hear success stories to inspire and motivate us to meet the challenges of a hectic semester, even more so when it is one of our very own.Meet Andrew Levula. Andrew is from Fiji currently pursuing his Phd in Project Management.
Andrew was invited to be a speaker at the Project Management Institute (PMI) conference last week; a not-for-profit professional organisation aimed at furthering project management through training seminars, development of standards and research to name a few. Among the attendees were sponsors such as Microsoft, thought leaders, exhibitors and over 250 delegates.
As well as being a speaker, Andrew was also one of two winners for the 2013 Student Conference Paper of the Year Award. Congratulations Andrew !

This is only a very short introduction but we will keep you posted on our members and how we are all slowly moving towards making a lasting impact in our respected fields.http://www.pmi.org.au/andrew-vakarau-levula/
Watch this space for more and to hear from the man himself !
Well done Adriu! Very proud of Andrew and his achievements thus far. A young Pacific islander making headways (inroads!) in science, commerce & academia. There is a side to Andrew that we do not necessarily appreciate in light of his credentials & achievements, and i hope in the not too distant future there will be another piece on Andrew which will give us an insight into the roads he travelled, the sacrifice, the commitment & what impressed me particularly ...his values. Andrew is a story to be told, it is possible to hold one's own in this big world, all young men & women of Pacific descent. I look forward to seeing Andrew's (& your names!) in lights.
