Started learning scheduling software, (Primavera and Microsoft Project), in July 2001. Worked with project teams to identify their baseline execution plan for constructing building projects. Established performance baselines, statused activities and updated schedules. Reported project status and performance metrics to different management levels as necessary.
Prior to embarking on a planning and scheduling career I worked in the construction field. Starting in 1978 as a laborer, to carpentry, to foreman. Self employed subcontractor for 7 years. Afterwards I chose to work for a construction management firm. Worked as a superintendant from April 1999 to July 2001. Then decided to learn scheduling software and what is required to develop an project execution plan.
