Coordinating volunteers and managing building projects.

I was hired for the duration of the project where I was responsible for the on sight construction of the “Smokey Mountain Fine and Performing Arts Center” in Franklin North Carolina; a beautiful theater of forty thousand square feet, seating fifteen hundred. My duties included recording daily activities, directing or assisting subcontractors with issues or questions, coordinating logistics of the project, and managing company crews.

Responsible for multiple building projects of high end multimillion dollar custom homes and assistance to the G.M. as needed. As P.M., I took projects from the contract stage and over saw them through the C/O and even the warranty stage. Responsibilities include producing material take-offs, pricing and estimating; also, planning, hiring, and scheduling of labor, supervisors, sub-contractors, and vendors. I created schedules tailored to each project to assist in controlling Sub-Contractors, Site Supervisors, and controlling costs. Client relations are a key to our success which is my responsibility. My responsibilities include keeping clients current with progress, identifying and creating change orders, approving invoices, and keeping clients current with the budget.
