An innovative project engineer and effective communicator with years of experience specializing in project engineering, work measurement, cost engineering, and contract administration is seeking the challenge of leading a project engineering program as its engineer.
WORK STYLE
Comfortable working in a wide range of environments--ranging from quiet individual time to one-on-one, small groups, large groups and conventions. I enjoy problem solving, especially when it involves leading a group of people or as a team member to resolve cost or project specification issues. I am at my best when I can help solve hard real world issues in the plant and construction areas by using contacts with thoughtful leaders inside and outside the company and innovative new technology.
I enjoy meeting and working with a wide variety of people from around the world and from all walks of life--helping them to grow, overcome major obstacles, achieve their dreams, tackle meaningful challenges, and develop self-reliance. I love to coach, getting my greatest satisfaction from seeing people achieve something they do not think was possible while learning to believe in themselves.
