PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE & CONTRIBUTIONS

ION BEAM APPLICATION (IBA), Reston, VA 1998-2019

Worldwide leader in proton therapy technology for the last 30 years and has built the largest user community of the world's best proton therapy centers and offers the highest success in completing the buildings ready to install proton systems equipment within 12 months from the start of construction.

FACILITY DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION MANAGER

Directed all aspects of facility design, construction estimating, site supervision, and inspection for all IBA-furnished proton therapy facilities. Projects ranged in value from $25M to $250M in the U.S., as well as China, Korea, Germany and France where IBA Proton Equipment is provided.

Key Contributions

Managed and coordinated the planning, budgeting, scheduling, design, bidding, and construction furnishing requirements of new construction and renovation projects.

Gained a detailed understanding of federal, state, and local laws and regulations related to planning facility projects, including compliance with local entitlement and permitting processes.

Collaborated with architectural design teams to develop and review facility construction documents from schematic design to construction drawing completion, including:

oVetted general contractor selection and provided continual field inspection, support, and attended OAC meetings related to new facility construction, including power, water, and all services to support the proton therapy equipment.

oDuring construction, supported general contractor, sub-contractors, and clients from conception (shovel-in-the-ground) to physical installation of the proton equipment.

oEvaluated and guided all planning states of proton therapy facilities, including construction, equipment, furniture, comparisons, options, and responded to procurement agreements and standards.

oPerformed construction administration and walk-throughs to create punch lists, paying attention to contract specifications to ensure compliance.

oNegotiated fees and business decisions for contracts with professional contractors, reviewed and approved consultant and contractor invoices and approved change orders to contracts.

Key Achievements

Construction oversight for the first proton therapy project at Mass General Hospital in Boston allowing the installation of proton therapy equipment and coordinating the IBA site Team efforts.
