With my 10 years of experience as a Kitchen/Bath Designer and Project Manager for custom luxury homes in New York and Connecticut along with high-rise condominiums in New York City, I believe I can contribute the industry knowledge needed to successfully contribute to deliver projects within your company. I desire to bring my experience and hard work to a company that has multiple projects.
I recently graduated from the University of Utah completing my Bachelors Degree in International Business Management with a strong focus in Economics and Finance. In addition to my International Degree, I have completed over seventy-credits toward my B.S. in Civil Engineering. With this additional ongoing education I have gained substantial technical knowledge and a passion to solve challenging complex problems. I also obtain an Architectural & Interior Design Associates Degree.
Prior to University of Utah, I have enhanced my strategy development, leadership, and analysis skills throughout my twenty years professional working experience. As a Design-Build Project Manager for ten years in millwork, I led multiple teams and suppliers simultaneously on numerous multi-million dollar construction developments successfully. These projects required comprehensive strategic vision, attention to detail, strong analytical skills, and the ability to organize and manage various groups for customer satisfaction. I believe that my twelve-year career in Sales and Marketing trained me to establish relationships for new business and streamline workflow processes to increase company profits.
With my drive, skills, and experience, I am confident that I would be a great contribution.
