Throughout my career I have managed large teams of professionals and have been the lead contact for owners, contractors and consultants on a variety of Design/Build and Design/Bid project types from inception to occupancy.
I am seeking a career opportunity where I can use my skills and experience and I am willing to travel or relocate for the right opportunity.
Thirty-two years of experience as a leader in delivering project management, architectural and engineering services to both commercial and industrial clients.Â
I have a strong belief in the importance of integrating design and construction efforts to optimize the project delivery process.Â
This philosophy along with my skills in estimating, scheduling and bid/award allow me to achieve the best results in managing the design and construction of a
project from inception through close out.
