Port Richey, Florida, United States
I’m a construction professional with 5+ years of industry experience, including hands-on work as a finish carpenter and the past year as a commercial estimator. My background in the field provides me with a practical understanding of how projects are built. At the same time, my estimating experience enables me to analyze drawings, scopes, and costs with accuracy and efficiency. As a commercial estimator, I work with takeoffs, subcontractor scopes, pricing, and bid preparation, using tools such as 2020 Design, PlanSwift, Procore, Contractor Foreman, SketchUp, and construction drawings and specifications. I’m detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and comfortable managing multiple bids and priorities. To complement my technical experience, I completed the Google Project Management Certificate, gaining training in project planning, scheduling, task management, risk tracking, and team collaboration. I regularly use Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, Trello, and Asana to organize work, track progress, and support clear communication across teams. What sets me apart is my ability to bridge the gap between the field and the office. I understand how accurate estimates, realistic schedules, and strong coordination directly impact project execution and outcomes.
