My relevant experience toward construction includes the management of single family, multi-family, and commercial tenant improvement projects, combined with field experience ranging from site development to as-builds. My strength in the building industry has always been a superior ability to motivate subcontractors, maintain close coordination of public and private management, and keep strict attention to detail in order to deliver projects on time with unsurpassed customer satisfaction.
