PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

My professional experience has primarily involved project management in the

environmental field. I have managed projects with budgets ranging from five-

thousand dollars to over two hundred thousand dollars. In the process, each

project has required the development of scope-of-work, budgets, and in some

cases assembling teams to assist in task completion. Additional aspects of

the management of various projects has included meeting with and addressing

all client needs in a timely and cost effective manner, as well as

coordinating with various regulatory agencies.

A significant part of my career included the creation of a small

environmental consulting company in Austin, Texas. As part of business

development, the early stages of the company's inception required marketing

of services as well as all logistical aspects involved in the creation of a

company. Client and regulatory agency interactions occurred throughout the

project's duration from inception to case closures. Projects ranged from

Greenfield environmental site assessments (ESAs), Brownfield redevelopment

ESAs, to manufacturing facility ESAs.

My regulatory experience includes the Texas Risk Reduction Program (TRRP),

Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP), Innocent Owner/Operator Program (IOP), and

Risk-Based Corrective Action (RBCA).
