What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own end-to-end permitting and project administration for luxury builds—collaborating with design teams, keeping agencies aligned, and maintaining aggressive construction timelines through disciplined documentation and proactive liaison.

I’m a results-driven Project Administrator & Permit Specialist with extensive experience managing luxury multifamily and mixed-use developments across South Florida. I’ve led permitting operations for 800+ units and coordinated end-to-end workflows from groundbreaking approvals through TCO/CO issuance, navigating complex zoning and municipal requirements along the way.

I manage $60M+ project budgets and serve as the primary liaison between developers, contractors, and municipal departments to expedite revisions and plan approvals. From comprehensive construction documents, MEP drawings, and site plans to impact fees, bond requirements, and permit fee schedules, I focus on aggressive construction timelines through rigorous document management and proactive agency liaison.
