Southampton, Ontario, Canada
I have a desire to learn and am committed to self improvement. I work well with others and can complete tasks from either a leader or as a leader of a team. I also work well independently and can stay motivated to complete tasks under budget and on time. I enjoy project management and the coordination, pressure and problem solving that comes with the roll of leading projects. I have an excellent understanding of multiple different trades that gives me the ability to estimate how long certain projects should take and the costs associated with each portion of the project. I am physically fit and can complete tasks requiring manpower but also live by the slogan to "work smarter, not harder" and will often find a way to accomplish the same result using a different technique that is more efficient and cost effective. It is my goal to learn something new or enhance a skill set every day on the job site or in the office. I am committed to deliver an exceptional client experience by tailoring each project experience based on the client through communication and dependability.
