environmental restrictions and regulations.

building construction and remodeling projects, which included meeting projects

deadlines and the interpretation of construction drawings and

specifications. I likewise scheduled and

oversaw contractors and subcontractors of multiple projects with both

concurrent and independent deadlines.

also was the Property Manager of 26-unit condominium complex for 7 years that

involved building daily and weekly maintenance, scheduling of contractors and

subcontractors for building improvements, repairs and maintenance
