What I'm looking for

I want to coordinate building projects in fast-paced, multi-project environments—supporting permits, documentation, BIM coordination, and smooth concept-to-handover delivery. I’m focused on aligning stakeholders, managing risk, and helping projects transition cleanly into operations.

I’m an execution-focused project professional with 5+ years of experience supporting and coordinating building projects across Canada and the UK. I help teams deliver restoration, new builds, and renovations by coordinating contractors, consultants, and internal stakeholders.

In permit and documentation-heavy work, I track schedules, deliverables, and submission deadlines while maintaining rigorous quality control and version management. I prepare and submit permit applications and approval packages, collaborate with engineers and municipal reviewers, and keep projects moving by resolving comments efficiently.

On public-sector and heritage projects, I support project managers across multiple workstreams by maintaining project schedules, tracking milestones, risks, and coordination issues, and escalating items to senior stakeholders as required. I manage project documentation and digital BIM deliverables with audit-ready version control, and I coordinate design and construction meetings, minutes, and action-item follow-up.

I’m also committed to smoother handovers: I support transitions from design into construction by resolving clashes, RFIs, and constructibility issues early, and I train teams to improve drafting software best practices. My approach is highly organized, relationship-driven, and built for fast-paced, multi-project environments.
