What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead sustainable urban development and community-focused projects, manage cross-functional teams, secure and manage grants, and drive impact through public-private partnerships.

I am an urban developer and project manager focused on sustainable design, community development, and efficient project delivery. I founded and lead a sustainable construction design and drafting firm that produces master plans and design documents using AutoCAD and Revit.

I have led permitting strategies, rezoning efforts, and code compliance work to expedite approvals, and managed full project lifecycles including budgeting, subcontractor oversight, scheduling and quality control using tools like Priority Matrix and MS Projects.

I have a strong record in nonprofit and community work: authoring and securing competitive grants (upwards of $1.2M), building governance infrastructure, launching volunteer initiatives, and co-authoring a community development master plan.

I bring hands-on construction and operations experience from founding and running multi-state contracting and roofing businesses, plus experience implementing accounting systems, RFP and grant management, and public engagement to connect underserved residents with resources.
