Summary
As a manager with extensive experience in public works, utilities, and construction, I possess a comprehensive understanding of all aspects related to these fields. A comprehensive record of successful oversight of operations, maintenance, and construction projects associated with public works systems. I'm a highly effectively manager who coordinates various aspects of these systems and projects simultaneously.
This expertise goes beyond routine tasks, I consistently demonstrate the capacity to address challenging, complex, and sensitive issues that arise in the course of managing public works projects. Overall, my extensive experience, analytical skills, problem-solving capabilities, and capacity to make informed decisions in high-pressure situations are the capstones of my success.
My focus on building a healthy and collaborative team is the foundation for providing guidance and expertise throughout all phases of municipal systems. By fostering an environment of trust and cooperation, and cultivating a motivated and cohesive workforce that is capable of achieving the goals set forth. This emphasis on teamwork and collaboration ensures that the entire team is aligned toward the common objectives and is equipped to handle the complexities of all projects.
Although I deeply value the Town of Windsor and the friendships and professional relationships I've built here, my fiancé lives in Maryland, and I have committed to relocating there.
