At Carter Lumber, I manage building-material sales for residential and commercial builders, including national accounts with Pulte, D.R. Horton, and Maronda. I take inquiries from discovery through quoting, orders, delivery, and reorders, using plan-based takeoffs to prepare accurate proposals.

I built repeatable AI workflows for account research, discovery preparation, tailored outreach, and call summaries. With every output verified, these workflows recover about five selling hours per week.

Before Carter Lumber, I designed framing packages at Clayton Homes, translating plans into build-ready wall panels, floor systems, and roof trusses. My earlier real estate work included client transactions, comparative market analyses, and appraisal support.
