About 

Having recently completed my studies in civil engineering, I am ambitious to continue my progress towards a career in Project Management.  Throughout both school and work experience I have earned a reputation for thoroughness, organization, and eagerness to learn new skills from others while still willing to accept leadership roles and take charge, as well as being able to working both independently or as part of a team. I will do whatever it takes to bring a project to a successful consclusion. 

I bring a variety of experiences from internships and prior work including estimating experience, program and project management.  I have  field experience in site surveying, hands on experience with carpentry, HVAC, electrical wiring, as well as classwork in architectural design, and technical software experience including AutoCAD, rhino, Microsoft project, and earthworks.
