Thank you for taking the time to read my Resume and possibly consider me for the Construction Manager position you have open. I believe my skills and vast experience, in many facets of Construction Management including:

Government, K-12, Higher Education, Office Construction and TIs, National Retail and Hospitality, Multi-Family (including Low-Cost Housing), Mixed Use, Call Centers. and Biotech TI’s; might fit your needs.

Most of my work over the years has been from the design start of the project (including working with governments on permitting), through bidding, managing the construction, working with clients and designers, scheduling, insuring all close out requirements are met, and accounting for the project is complete and correct.

For about the last 20+ years my role has not only been that of individual job Project Manager, but more of a Director and Team Leader. In that role, I have managed groups of PM’s and other team members doing multiple projects at the same time. I think one of my major strengths is mentoring new PM’s as to how construction management is done, and helping them when any concerns come up.
