What I'm looking for

I seek a client-facing estimating or sales role at a collaborative company where I can use my estimating and CRM skills to build client trust and drive project success.

I am a results-driven client relations professional with experience in estimating, sales, and financial advising. I have quoted jobs that produced over $3M in sales, drafted material proposals and takeoffs, and collaborated cross-functionally with engineers, project managers, and sales teams to deliver high-quality project outcomes.

I leverage strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and proficiency with tools like Salesforce, AutoCAD, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office to manage leads, develop personalized client plans, and maintain accurate documentation. I seek roles where I can build trust with clients, contribute to team success, and continue growing in estimating and client-facing responsibilities.
