Employing effective leadership, sound decision making and diverse industry

experience, I capitalize a unique blend of competencies to complete

construction and business safety improvement initiatives that maximize

value/minimize risk. With a superior record of accident reduction, project

delivery, and profitability improvement, my skills include:

? Safety and risk management for construction, high tech, hospitality,

energy, and commercial sectors

? Application of leading-edge technologies to facilitate effective safety

programs

? Project controls, risk management, reporting and forecasting

? Safety program development to engage workers and reduce incidents

? Team development to ensure consistent performance

Providing a high level of control, I deliver complex projects by

collaborating and partnering with all stakeholders, and am comfortable in

the field as well as HQ operations. I judged a highly competent, focused

and challenge-oriented problem solver who consistently exceeds

expectations/corporate goals.

Distinguishing Accomplishments

Greystar Corporation ($750M+ leader in facilities, operations, maintenance

and asset management services)

Built lucrative relationship with new client. Greystar, a $750M+ firm

serving global oil and gas customers, secured initial contract with $132B

Eni Oil & Gas to optimize performance of Maximo system for operation in

Libya. Established trusting relationship with local management to drive

improvements ranging from 35% reduction in safety incidents, $5M in

inventory and other cost savings, and secured $13M in new contracts.

Vail Resorts Inc. ($869M resort developer)

Salvaged major project. Vail Resorts' $200M hotel/retail/condo complex was

18 months behind schedule and $40M over budget, with excessive lost-time

accidents further impacting performance. Built group of five independent

project managers into cohesive team, developing an aggressive schedule to

enable delivery within six month timeline. Completed project on schedule,

recovering $15M in overcharges while reducing costly accident rate to zero.

Achieved significant cost savings across multiple projects. Vail Resorts'

building plan was budgeted at $10B over 10 years. Based upon accurate/risk

sensitive planning and a stellar project completion record; negotiated a

20% insurance fee reduction. Netted $50M total savings across several

hotel, condo and mixed-use retail projects.

Vratsinas Construction Company ($555M commercial builder)

Eliminated lost-time accidents. Vratsinas Construction, a Top 100 US

contractor, needed an upgraded safety program to help minimize costs and

ensure crew continuity on $200M shopping center project. Initiated strategy

implementing a formal safety program including a rigorous safety

orientation and ongoing task hazard meetings; resulting in just 2 medical

only incidents, across 2M total man-hours, saving $1M+ in process.

Tradesmen International (national commercial construction staffing company)

Turned around failing operation. Local office was understaffed and losing

clients right and left. Worked with GM to revamp operational/administrative

systems while assuming safety director role. Built staff to optimum level,

expanded customer base, reduced accidents 78%. Exceeded corporate revenue

goals by 42%.

Immunex Corporation (now part of Amgen)

Played important role in resolving key compliance issue. Expanding biotech

company was documenting its three separate production lines with a mix of

manual and automated systems and this violation of FDA mandates needed to

be fixed. Applied technical expertise to transition all record keeping and

safety to existing Maximo system, ensuring that the FDA's pending

production line shutdown order was cancelled. Saved Immunex $90M.

Facilitated successful merger. When Immunex agreed to a buyout by Amgen, it

had to comply with FDA mandate and furnish key customer with all pertinent

product and production process data within six weeks. The penalty for non-

compliance was $300M. Contracted with database expert to assist with the

programming of all necessary data removal. Validated all results for FDA,

enabling Immunex to meet its critical compliance deadline.

Servicemark Tenant Services (this startup facilities management firm is now

part of Unico Properties)

Upgraded service capability to foster long-term success. Servicemark had

contracted to manage 7M sq. ft. of office/retail space, but lacked the

systems and procedures to meet its obligations. Implemented Maximo system,

automating order/invoicing, inventory, and safety to boost efficiency and

reduce accidents. Trained all workers. With AT&T, developed hand-held

service monitoring system that heightened service quality and market

impact.

Denver Health Medical Center (DHMC)

Employed technical expertise to facilitate major cost savings. Government

informed DHMC that it had been overpaid $3M for Medicare patient services.

Initiated project to more accurately assess usable billing space, finding

that it had been underestimated. DHMC justified all prior Medicare

billings, avoiding multi-million dollar pay-back expense and was able to

increase Medicare revenues 10% based upon the more accurate billable space

finding.
