Linda Summers Email & Phone Number

For more than 25 years, I have successfully directed marketing and business development efforts to expand the market base, increase market share, and develop new geographic fronts for large architectural/engineering and construction firms, as well as for non-profits. My particular skills are writing for grants, proposals, awards, press releases, Strategic Plans, and developing strategies for winning proposals, For any assignment, I like to incorporate creative, technical, and strategic skills to provide a fresh yet intelligent approach to the task at hand. Creating winning proposals requires much more than good writing. That is a given. The strategy must be practical while creative and often not mainstream thinking.Specialties: I have developed architectural, engineering, construction, market plans, as well as proposals and presentations. I am very skilled in getting to the heart of the matter regarding clients' issues by creating solid rationales for engaging proposal themes. I am comfortable working with diverse people and cultures.New Urbanism is something I sincerely advocate for and am active in two organizations that promote the characteristics of human-scale living. The other area of my passion lies with art. I am a fine artist, practicing jewelry and metalsmithing for many years. Art should be a required subject in schools and is no less important than STEM subjects.

Listed skills include Proposal Writing, Business Development, Project Planning, Marketing Communications, and 46 others.
