    Hey

    Without knowing, I assumed you were doing this between two sheets and that your Project Mgr names were listed in a column on your destination sheet. This is counting all projects assigned to any specific project manager, not projects of a certain status, ie "completed".

    =COUNTIFS({source sheet project manager}, Name@row = @cell, {source sheet Start Date}, @cell >= DATE(2020, 4, 1), {source sheet End Date}, @cell <= TODAY())

    If it wasn't between two sheets and you need help getting the formula for the single sheet, call out and I'll be happy to convert this. You will have to edit the formula for your column names and your specific cross referenced ranges.
