Planning and community development professional capable of providing administrative and project experience to clients within the public and/or private sector. For public sector clients, my service as a municipal department head, project manager, grant administrator, research director, and staff planner provides relevant administrative skills refined by proficiency in specialized areas/tasks such as comprehensive neighborhood and corridor planning, economic development, land use entitlements, historic preservation, public transit, and development review.Within the private sector, extensive experience with renewable energy development, commercial clients and residential developers includes a customer/project base with projects/sites located throughout the continental United States and Canada for major corporate clients.Coordinating specialized commercial retail, institutional and multi-use development projects from conceptual development through occupancy and operation is a strength. Utilizing my experience with entitlements, zoning and land use codes, research and the development review process assists in reconciling a client's needs, priorities, budget, and schedule with the goals and objectives of the municipalities reviewing projects.As part of a team of architects, civil engineers, surveyors, landscape architects, and construction managers, as well as specialized renewable energy professionals, environmental and traffic consultants, my expertise helps negotiate cost-effective solutions to development, design, and construction problems. From initial concept through permitting and plan review processes with multiple jurisdictions at the local, state, and federal levels, and continuing throughout the construction cycle, my project management skills keep projects on schedule and within budget, while producing a fully code-compliant project, according to plan.
