What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities in project management, operations, or business development in the United States, and I’m open to relocation or remote/hybrid arrangements.

At Cochrane International, I lead and mentor project managers delivering commercial high-security fencing and gate installations across multiple sites. I oversee projects from planning and technical coordination through quality checks and final handover, with a focus on on-time, on-budget delivery and regulatory compliance.

At Cochrane Global – ClearVu Fencing, I manage installation projects and develop business relationships nationwide. I was recognized as Top Business Developer in April 2022, among more than 40 peers, for performance and revenue contribution.

Earlier, I managed technical sales for modular tanks at Rainbow Reservoirs and led branding for ClearVu across international markets. I’m seeking opportunities in project management, operations, or business development in the United States.
