Accomplishments

  • Received a quality review from the southeast regional director of Walmart projects to the Owner of Place Services.
  • Took over a failing project from a terminated Project Manager, I quickly assessed the situation, identified key issues, and put together a plan to turn things around. Through careful planning, coordination, and hard work, we were able to deliver the project on schedule, exceeding the client's expectations. I am proud of the work I did to salvage this project and bring it to a successful conclusion. It was a challenging experience, but one that ultimately strengthened my skills as a project manager and leader.
  • I successfully trained all newly hired Superintendents on project management software, safety protocols, quality control measures, and communication procedures. By ensuring that Superintendents were knowledgeable and confident in utilizing these systems, I was able to increase overall efficiency and effectiveness in the field. Additionally, I provided ongoing support and guidance to ensure that superintendents were able to successfully implement these systems in their day-to-day operations. This training ultimately resulted in improved project outcomes and client satisfaction.
  • I took on the role of Project Manager at Place Services and quickly proved my capabilities by successfully leading various projects to completion. My strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to work well under pressure allowed me to excel in this position and earn the recognition of being the youngest Project Manager at the company.
  • Added fifty new chucks to UAC Reform System that resulted not only in cost savings but also increased efficiency in the manufactory process.
  • Managed a crew of 6 men at UAC breaking the record for the least scrap material and highest turnover production for three months running; This accomplishment required excellent organizational skills and effective communication with the crew members. I implemented strategies to streamline the production process and maximize efficiency, resulting in a significant decrease in scrap material and an increase in production turnover.
  • To achieve this record-breaking performance, I closely monitored each crew member's performance and provided guidance and support as needed. I also implemented regular training sessions to ensure that all team members were well-equipped to perform their tasks effectively.
