Capital Development Project Manager @ City of Calgary

About

I’m a construction project manager who’s spent the last decade building spaces across Western Canada: rec centres, towers, community hubs, and everything in between. I’ve worked on both sides of the fence — private and public — and learned that good project management is really about relationships, listening first, and staying collaborative when things get a little spicy. I’ve always been the person who spots patterns, builds a new spreadsheet, or tweaks a workflow to make life easier for everyone. I hit my flow state when I’m deep in an analysis or mapping out project tasks and milestones. Lately, that’s led me to dive deeper into data and technology because I believe they can help the construction industry work smarter and strengthen how we build and collaborate.
