SUMMARY

 

Highly Versatile Project Manager/Project Controls Manager  with more than Thirteen years working in cross-functional environments in the U.S. and abroad. Exceptional written and oral communication skills. Formal education and experience ranging from United States Marine Corps, to hands-on industrial exposure at Sasol Mega Project, lends me to any employer as a Project Manager/Project Controls Manager/Maintenance Manager. I applied my knowledge of strategic analysis and risk management.  My work is organized to boost productivity through innovative management and mentorship. I have extensive knowledge in originating, implementing, and

managing complex projects. I'm able to derive at strategies for the method of executing work, such as developing larger packages to be handled as projects where savings can be realized from the use of value-improving practices. Evidence of my critical thinking was the ability to raise production levels from a .38 to a 1.17 on a specific performance (Firewater Pond) of the Mega Project. Other evidence is being able to raise a combat readiness percentage from 40% to 95% in a timely fashion between conflicts which resulted in a Presidential Unit Citation. I strongly believe in the implementation of securing the right personnel to obtain company goals and aspirations, while maintaining cost, augmenting production levels, and pledging safety as a non-negotiable.
