Advice/Keys to Success: Listening, observing, and asking questions are key components to my personal success. By executing these three simple tasks, they can help to plan, execute, forecast and develop the necessary skills and work flow needed to take not only yourself, but your projects, and your teammates to the next level of achievement.

If you had a mentor in your career, who was it and what did they teach you? Having been employed by the same company for 24 years, I have had more than one mentor. All of my immediate supervisors have mentored me throughout my career. They taught me not only the basic necessities of being a project manager, but in being a leader, believing in me, and provided me the opportunity to excel in what was once a male dominated construction industry. I must also give credit to all of the plumbing foreman, journeymen, coordinators, salesmen, and other trade leaders with whom I have interacted with over the years and have learned so much from.
