Summary

Every summer since my college years , I would work in residential construction, since my father is a contractor and would work in every opportunity that I could. This has allowed me to enroll many skills and even personal character traits that are essential in the real world. Such as negotiation, budgeting, time management and seeing what it takes to run a business ultimately. In 2021 I started working in a jewish school as a building property manager while still attending school full time and working with my father's construction company. Overall I supervise the school's property, which consists of a commercial building and 2 residential houses which are used as dorms. I studied Civil Engineering because of my background growing up and my interests in construction and want to pursue a career in what I know I am capable of and have strong interests for.
