Kansas City Metropolitan Area
I am a transformational real estate and facilities leader with 15+ years of experience directing large-scale portfolios, capital programs, and real estate strategies across corporate, government, and institutional sectors. Throughout my career, I’ve managed global and North American portfolios of 100+ properties, overseen $400M+ in capital investments, and delivered measurable results — including multimillion-dollar cost savings, footprint optimization, and seamless M&A integration. What sets me apart is my ability to build and scale real estate functions from the ground up, design governance frameworks, and negotiate complex transactions that balance financial discipline with long-term growth. I’ve partnered with executives, boards, and government leaders to influence enterprise strategy, safeguard assets, and align portfolios with organizational priorities. My expertise spans portfolio optimization, capital project delivery, lease negotiation, policy and procedure development, sustainability (LEED/ESG), and cross-functional collaboration. I am equally comfortable leading internal teams and managing outsourced service providers, always with a focus on accountability, innovation, and operational excellence. I thrive in dynamic environments where real estate is more than space — it’s a platform for growth, culture, and client experience. Recognized with multiple industry honors, including the Kansas City Business Journal Capstone Award, Urban Land Institute’s Development of Distinction Award, and Dow Jones Sustainability Index recognition, I bring proven expertise in delivering award-winning projects. As a frequent speaker at national conferences and leadership forums, I share insights on portfolio transformation, sustainability, and workplace strategy. My goal is to continue shaping innovative, sustainable, and people-centered environments that drive business performance and community impact.
