Being Degreed, Certified and with over 24 years of Construction Project Management experience in the Commercial, Industrial, Entertainment, K-12 and Secondary Educational, Medical, Emergency Response construction fields, I have developed a very successful and proven Pro-Active Partnering strategy that establishes and maintains an environment of mutual understanding, trust and respect by all Team members. This in turn promotes an advantageous atmosphere of “risk/claim avoidance†rather than the more common approach of “risk/claim managementâ€.
