In collaboration with senior management and stakeholders, I align project deliverables with requirements, while partnering cross-functionally to reduce costly, timely delays. Along the way, I ensure all work is completed and occupancy warrants obtained by coordinating final inspections with engineering consultants. Furthermore, I accelerate project delivery by overseeing work sequences.  Inspected, approved, and accepted completed projects ensuring adherence to standards, safety codes, and engineering specifications.  Controlled costs by overseeing budget management and expenditures, while monitoring performance metrics for quality adherence. Attended regular project and management meetings, mitigating potential risks, discussing progress, brainstorming ideas, and streamlining tasks. Assisted with vendor and subcontractor selection and proposing/approving modifications to project plans. Presented status reports on budgets, resources, technical, and customer satisfaction to senior leadership and stakeholders.

By managing end-to-end construction projects, I facilitated their timely delivery to quality standards, resolving conflict and reviewing/requesting modifications to construction drawings as needed. Daily, I supervised the activities of our trade partners, oversaw subcontractor activities, and led site inspections. These steps helped me ensure adherence to code requirements and safety/SWPPP standards, streamline operations, and identify potential issues.Throughout this time, I maintained relationships with key stakeholders and various disciplines. Additionally, I verified projects met approved time, quality, and cost estimates. Initiated achievement of contractual obligations and safety protocols while ensuring timely completion of projects. Paused work deemed unsatisfactory or noncompliant with plans, specifications, and/or applicable code, while implementing plans of action to ensure safe working environments and compliance.  Engaged with clients, reporting progress updates, providing tangible solutions, and addressing concerns. Strategically negotiated, created, and authorized field purchase orders for materials and labor.  Updated plan quality, schedule adherence, and budget compliance in collaboration with multidiscipline teams

As an estimator, I effectively optimized resources by selecting quality, yet cost-effective options that aligned with client objectives. I then analyzed and calculated field measurements, survey plans, and plot plans to generate proposals and process work orders. In the interim, I reviewed existing structures and selected systems in compliance with codes, manufacturers, and company capabilities. Upheld competitiveness in bidding process by remaining current with industry trends, while managing bid calendar in collaboration with take-off and account managers.  Produced cost estimates for complex construction projects utilizing computer programs. Developed quantity takeoffs from construction drawings using appropriate software packages.

To accurately estimate costs, I analyzed labor, material, and time requirements, gathering required documentation, including specifications and blueprints, at pre-bid meetings. Parallel to this, I studied proposals and blueprints, identifying plans and resources needed to achieve project goals and objectives. Initiated competitive project delivery by obtaining bids from vendors and subcontractors by specifying materials. Determined qualified subcontractors and negotiated prices with customers Customized estimates based on clients’ specific needs, participated in bid reviews, and performed takeoffs from architectural drawings/specifications, while obtaining quotes for materials.Additional Experience: Project Manager & Estimator, Baker Roofing Company – Atlanta, GA, Jan 2018 – Dec 2018 Roofing Field Supervisor, Alpha Omega Construction Group - Atlanta, GA, Mar 2017 – Jan 2018 Roofing Field Supervisor, ARC Roofing Corporation – Miami, FL, Oct 2012 – Mar 2014

Throughout multiple deployments in 2003, 2005, and 2007, I headed over 500 missions where I led, trained, and mentored a platoon of 40 soldiers. During those deployments, I forged relationships with local leaders, trained Iraqi police/Army forces, and coordinated with other units in hostile environments.
