Job overview

As the co-owner of a Real Estate and Construction Company, I am involved in real estate sales and marketing as well as the day-to-day operation on the construction company as its Vice President. I meet with potential clients, compile bids and prepare estimates and, once under contract, I am involved in the buy-out of the projects as well as assisting customers with their selections. Once selections are made that information is compiled and I meet with the trades to assure the information is implemented in the field. In my role as Project Manager, I am involved in every project from footings to final cleaning. My duties include:
• Work with surveyors to layout houses on the lot and, when required, meet with the development's Architectural Review Board representative to review the positioning of the home.

• Supervise concrete and masonry crews to assure the plans are being followed and adapt to field conditions as appropriate.
• Supervise framing crews to assure plan adherence as well as structural requirements for the costal wind zone.
• Once insulation and sheetrock is complete I supervise the interior trim and millwork subs.
• Moving into the final stages of each project, I work very closely with every Sub contractor to assure not only selections are being installed properly but that the quality expectations are met for final turnover to the client.

  • Manage projects from inception to completion across programming, design, bidding and construction management.
  • Demonstrate strong organizational and time management skills while managing multiple projects.
  • Manage numerous construction project priorities while adhering to predetermined timelines.
  • Help develop pre-bid drawings and specifications for construction projects.
