I’m an operations leader with over 20 years of experience driving capital project execution, mechanical turnarounds, and industrial site leadership across petrochemical, midstream, federal, and renewable sectors.

Throughout my career, I’ve managed more than $750 million in project value, delivering high-risk scopes for upstream, mid-stream, down stream, power generations facilities, chemical manufacturing facilities, renewable energy facilities including satellite sites, fueling depots from hydrogen to gasoline in all sectors of demand including our military bases — all under pressure and on deadline. I specialize in bridging executive vision with boots-on-the-ground safety, quality, execution, aligning field teams, stakeholders, and project controls to deliver results with precision and accountability.

From estimating and contract negotiation to risk management, scheduling, and stakeholder communication — I lead with zero compromise. I’ve worked with private owners, Fortune 500s, and federal contractors, always prioritizing safe execution and margin protection.

This site is a hub for who I am and what I bring to the table — real-world operational leadership, built on experience, grit, and real world results..
