As a program manager at Burns & McDonnell, I’m responsible for executing large-scale design-build projects for retail and commercial clients with a focus on speed-to-market, quality and value. I also provide innovative building material reuse solutions with a focus on landfill diversion and sustainability. My goal is to be trusted business partner on every phase of a project – from planning through design and construction and everything in between. I’m an architectural engineer, construction professional, reused building material specialist, entrepreneur and presenter with over 20 years of design and construction experience. I’ve worked as a LEED-accredited construction manager in both national and international capacities and have held roles in business development, client relations and design-build team management. In 2007, I founded PlanetReuse, a brokerage and consulting firm focused on reclaimed construction materials and landfill diversion. I’m a passionate advocate for building material reuse, with a focus on bringing increased awareness, collaboration and communication to the industry. In 2014, I returned to Burns & McDonnell, bringing along the expertise, network and reuse solutions I’ve built through nearly a decade of leadership in the Construction and Sustainability industries, and adding Global Reuse Services to the comprehensive services Burns & McDonnell offers.My team and I are passionate about what we do and the solutions we deliver for our clients.
