I am a Engineer/Account Manager focusing on the application of technology to business functions in the areas of engineering design, marketing, sales, construction, and logistics. My field of experience is diverse. I have worked with a Fortune 250 firm as well as a small entrepreneurial business. My strengths include power distribution and outdoor lighting design, strategic constrcuton planning, employee training, customer relations and development.
As a result of the downsizing of Progress Energy Florida, 300 positions were eliminated, including mine. I am now exploring opportunities that will take full advantage of my project management experience, as well as my engineering design and customer service background.
