My name is Patty Wong and I currently work full time as Construction Administrator and Administrative Assistant at Perkins+Will. As a Construction Administrator, I track RFIs, Submittals and Sketches for several projects at Perkins+Will. Currently part of my time I assist the New York Police Academy Project team (including construction management team, consultant engineers, architects, interior designers and I focus support with three of the principals working on the project). I assisted in presentation and submission packages in the Design Phase of the project by use of AutoCAD, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator to finalize drawings and presentation materials. Now in the Construction Phase, my role has moved onto construction administration work.
At 3-form, I was the Showroom Manager who managed and maintained the New York Showroom. I worked with VPs and Interior Designers from headquarters in Salt Lake City to keep the showroom up to date. I also worked with architects, designers, residential users, developers and contractors on their needs. I provided them with product information and assisted in their design project. I handled showroom presentations to walk in clients and residential clients. I have completed many orders with hospitality and residential projects. I provided clients with quotes and exceptional customer service. I started my work at 3-form searching to become an architectural sales representative. My start was a great decision and it gave me experience in the architectural finish sales industry.
At SBLM Architects, I worked as a Product Librarian/Junior Architect. I managed the product/code library and met with architectural sales reps on a regular basis. I researched new products and help designers with the final finish schedule. I also did site surveys and survey existing conditions and developed construction plans. I was on the commercial interiors design team, as well as the School Construction Authority team. I have extensive experience in administrative assisting principals, project managers, architects and drafters. At SBLM, I was an Arch Drafter as well as an admin assisting team members as needed.
