About 

In today’s economic environment, maintaining a competitive advantage in the architecture and construction fields has become more important than ever.  Through my years of experience, flexibility has proven to be the key to that advantage.

I offer a range of expertise that spans from traditional architecture through quality control, cost estimating and construction administration.

My entrepreneurial talents have allowed me to take these technical skills and apply that experience to marketability in competing for and winning work.


My degree in Architecture with minors in Landscape and Urban Planning, my professional experience, Auto Cad expertise and my ability to deliver projects on schedule and under budget, as well as the capability to maintain repetitive clients are assets that have contributed for a successful Senior Project Manager’s career.
