About Nick Khamphilom

Program and Project Manager with experience leading end-to-end delivery of large-scale initiatives, cross-functional collaborations, and stakeholder-driven programs. At the Washington State Opportunity Scholarship, I manage the design, execution, and evaluation of career development programs serving scholars annually, oversee a 450+ participant mentorship program, and maintain program roadmaps, timelines, and success metrics.I bring strong strengths in project planning, requirements gathering, process improvement, risk management, and stakeholder communication, partnering with organizations such as Amazon, Microsoft, Boeing, Seattle Children’s, and King County. I have hands-on experience with Smartsheet, Excel, and CRM/HR systems to track milestones, dependencies, and outcomes, and I hold a Google Project Management Professional Certificate. I’m particularly interested in program management, operations, and PM roles where I can build scalable systems, improve workflows, and deliver measurable impact.
