CAREER HIGHLIGHTS

Accomplished senior-level professional with over 27 years of experience in commercial and industrial construction:

At Encompass:

• Worked with client, Brown-Forman, to build a detailed 18 month schedule and conceptual estimate to

design-build a $60MM whiskey barrel cooperage. This included deadlines for the Owner provided FFE to

meet. The project came in under budget and all milestone dates were completed on time.

• Then as Owner’s Representative and Construction Manager, took over a $20MM project for Harlow’s

Casino expansion. The project was behind schedule with budget issues. The project was turned around

with strict adherence to a revised accelerated schedule (while coordinating with existing operations to keep

the casino and hotel operating) and negotiated value engineered buy-outs. The client’s openings were on

time and completed at cost for the contractor.

•

•

Next as Owner’s Representative for Pinnacle Entertainment, managed the overall 16 month schedule,

governmental compliance, and reporting to corporate of the new $200MM Belterra Park, a casino and

thoroughbred horse race track. The client opened all venues on time as established at the beginning of the

job.

budgets for the viability of several non-disclosed large capital projects.

At C-TeQ:

of business operations, staff management, finance, and brand and reputation building in the local commercial

work with an emphasis on the design-build delivery method. Project success strengths:

♦ Concept to Completion Project Management ♦ P&L Management ♦ Contract Negotiation

♦ Codes and Governmental Compliance ♦ Vendor Sourcing/Management ♦ Schedule & Budget Controls

At Brasch-Barry:

Introduced and implemented computerized scheduling and construction management processes, procured and

trained all project managers on PCs and set-up office network. Successfully bid and managed, simultaneously, their

two largest projects at that time.

At K.M. Stemler:

Introduced and implemented computerized scheduling and construction management processes. As the sole project

manager and estimator, I helped grow the company’s commercial work volume from $3M to a

backlog of $10M at the time of departure.

At Centex-Rodgers:

Utilized as a QC PM to troubleshoot and correct “problem” projects to get back on

course, to best meet the client’s needs and maximize company profits by effective risk management.

Reported directly to Project Executives to monitor corrective progress.
