In my professional career and personal life, I constantly take on challenges and explore new opportunities. My path has led me from junior engineer to senior project manager at a civil engineering firm, to starting my own consulting business, to becoming a Partner with Crozier. I’m driven by a constant desire to improve and better serve the people around me. My clients can tell I am interested in what they are creating, and I support them every step of the way. Being client-facing means understanding their needs and working with my project team to deliver a solution that meets those needs. My most rewarding projects are those where I have guided clients through the development process and helped them succeed. Over the course of my career I’ve come to focus on business development. As an entrepreneur, I know the challenges of trying to reconcile personal and professional goals, but I also know how to overcome them. My experience in the land development industry has taught me the importance of focusing on the big picture before you let the details drive the solution. I love helping our staff improve their networking, project management, engineering, and client management skills. As a mentor, I encourage our staff to be well-rounded people who are client-facing, comfortable with a challenge, and driven to improve themselves. Seeing my clients, colleagues, and friends succeed is what motivates me. I have always assumed I needed more mountains to climb and goals to surpass for personal growth. Looking back, my growth has been through the people I’ve met while climbing these mountains.
