Summary

Through the years, I have met and worked with some very intelligent people, and with that I have garnered my experience by carefully listening to people’s needs and requirements to bring together teams to deliver exceptional outcomes. I pride myself on the promise of delivering high quality work and demand excellence at all times, closely monitoring the budget and working safely without compromise.

Continual development is critical to anyone’s career, helping to stay focused will reap rewards. I became a Member of the Chartered Institute of Builders in 2018 and undertook a Leadership in Management program from Queens university in 2021. Being involved with numerous award-winning jobs that also include LEED platinum and WELL certifications, its satisfying that peers within the industry recognise the hard work and effort exerted to complete these prestigious projects.
