As a motivated, self-starting, hands-on, college educated Senior Construction Estimator/Project Manager; I have assembled cost estimates and managed diverse unique multi-million dollar construction projects for over 15 years. As the enclosed resume will indicate, I am explicitly familiar with the McCormick ESI 8000 computer estimating system, both the DOS and windows version, as well as manual estimating. I have developed a series of computer templates using Microsoft Word and Excel to standardize and simplify estimating and project managing for contractor, for your use.
