What I'm looking for

I seek a senior construction or program delivery role where I can lead mission-critical MEP and data center projects, drive procurement and risk management, and work within collaborative, safety-focused cultures to deliver high-quality outcomes.

I am a PMP-certified construction project manager and Incorporated Engineer with over eight years delivering high-value, mission-critical facilities including Tier III data centers and complex public infrastructure projects.

I excel in MEP and electrical systems oversight, procurement and contract management, risk mitigation, and regulatory compliance, and I routinely guide multidisciplinary teams to deliver projects on time and within budget.

My background includes owner’s representative roles, leading technical procurement, managing multi-million-dollar budgets, and coordinating stakeholders across public-sector environments and international organizations.

I bring strong communication and cultural sensitivity, multilingual abilities, and advanced proficiency with project tools such as Procore, MS Project, Primavera P6 cloud, BIM, and Navisworks to ensure quality, safety, and operational readiness.
