We're thrilled to shine a light on the incredible founders from our latest cohort! This week, we introduce Cassandra Taylor, the visionary Founder and CEO of Project Mentor Pro, a company dedicated to empowering aspiring project managers to confidently launch and excel in their careers.


In today's competitive landscape, Cassandra identified a critical challenge: the disconnect between obtaining project management credentials and gaining the crucial real-world experience needed to thrive. Her innovative firm, Project Mentor Pro, directly addresses this gap, helping individuals develop their untapped potential and transform into industry leaders who confidently manage complex projects.


Cassandra shares how her journey with The Boost Pad has been instrumental in her growth: "The BoostPad has truly transformed how I lead." Through our mentorship and resources, Cassandra has significantly strengthened her growth strategy, gained a deeper understanding of her business's financials for smarter decision-making, and, importantly, learned to prioritize her mental health while creating balance and building a mission-driven business.


Looking ahead, Cassandra has one clear aspiration for Project Mentor Pro: to connect with a corporate partner. This partnership would allow her to expand her reach and continue to bridge vital experience gaps for even more aspiring project managers.


We are incredibly proud of Cassandra's dedication and the vital work Project Mentor Pro is doing. She is a true testament to the innovative spirit of Cohort 11.
