What I'm looking for
I’m a Construction Operations Coordinator and Permitting Professional with 10+ years of experience in construction administration, permitting, inspections, dispatching, scheduling, customer service, and operations support.
In my current role as a Permit & Inspections Coordinator, I coordinate and process 300+ permits and inspections monthly across 30+ residential subdivisions and support 15+ builders in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical construction. I serve as the primary liaison between city, county, and state agencies, inspectors, builders, field personnel, and homeowners.
I’m known for monitoring permit approvals, inspection results, and project milestones to maintain construction schedules and regulatory compliance. I also coordinate warranty requests and construction scheduling activities, keeping documentation and workflows organized.
I bring strong administrative and customer-focused operations—using tools like Bolt, Box, Microsoft Office Suite, Outlook, Excel, and ServiceTitan to manage reporting, documentation, and day-to-day coordination. I’ve progressed through dispatcher and CSR leadership roles, strengthening my ability to keep teams aligned and projects moving.
