I am looking for a position in Estimating or Construction Management. In my past positions work included parametric cost estimating, life cycle cost analysis, cost estimating relationships and model development, cost risk analysis, performance measurement (earned value), project forecasting and risk assessment, cost-benefit analysis, and software cost estimating. Combined with 25 years of construction experience, both Commercial and Residential, under my belt I feel I can add a positive contribution to your company.
