About Me

I manage projects end-to-end: scope, schedule, budgets, vendors, risks, and client communication. I’ve worked in construction project environments and also build interactive projects (Unity/Unreal), so I’m comfortable with technical details and fast iteration. I keep work organized, communicate clearly, and push projects to completion without surprises.
