I started in the "field", the trenches, learning physical construction work from skilled craftsmen. At the same time, I was learning drafting and design without the aid of computers until the third year of the program. I was then given the opportunity to begin learning in the practical environment from experienced Facilities/Construction Managers first in one of the largest construction markets in the world. After the invaluable on-the-job training I received I've been able to apply the skills I acquired working for large and small companies and for myself.
My skills range from Project/Construction Managment, Project Controls and Scheduling, Forensic Delay and Disruption Analaysis, CAD Drafting, and General Construction to not only being able to apply those skills but also teach them to others.
