Having graduated from Northumbria University in 2021, I have been in practice for three years working for a consultancy firm delivering projects for both global and national sized clients. I have worked on both new build and refurbishment projects within a plethora of sectors including: retail, education, healthcare and residential. Throughout this time I have been involved in pre and post contract phases and have gained extensive experience in areas such as measurement/billing, estimating, tendering and contract administration.

In 2020 I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with a specialization in Marketing. With Turton Bond, I will be pursuing my interests in analytics and cost data, which I gleaned during my University tenure; this will be done through the variety of construction specific courses staff are offered. These courses, coupled with the day to day involvement and training on a number of high profile projects across a broad range of sectors, will stand me in good stead to develop my career within the ever evolving construction industry over the coming years.

I have over 6 years of experience in the construction industry as a Cost Manager, involved in projects pre and post contract in sectors such as education, commercial, office fit-out, leisure and local council that range from $1M to over $200M. During this time I have gained substantial experience in estimating, procurement, tendering, measurement, post contract and financial closeout, contract management and life cycle costing which allows me to advise the client thoroughly in various different cost management scenarios.

I have a diverse background that spans through tech recruiting, facilities, and construction. I have approached all facets of issues through data collection, data manipulation, and data visualization. With over 5 years of experience in the construction industry, I have worked on a public infrastructure project where I quantified contractual requirements to provide actionable insights on submittals, RFIs, payments, change orders, and other project-related matters for leadership and project managers. My expertise in data analysis and visualization has enabled me to help the team identify trends, track progress, and make informed decisions.

Having worked within the construction industry for 3 years, I have already gained invaluable experience and success across a range of residential new build projects. My role as the main contractors Quantity Surveyor has seen me work on numerous projects in the North-East of England, varying in contract value from £2m – £9m. Graduating from Northumbria University in September 2021, I spent my first two years balancing work and my degree whilst learning on the job. This has proven to be key to further enhancing skills I hold including time management, working within a fast-paced environment and the ability to multitask.

I have been actively involved in the construction cost consulting industry for the past 2 years working on a variety of different projects. I have experience in both the consultancy and general contractor side, where I gained practical experience both on the site and in the office on some of the most complex and cutting-edge residential projects in the Cape Town area. Since joining Turton Bond I have gained priceless experience in the pre and post-contract phases of a broad spectrum of projects ranging from upscale commercial and residential builds.

After completing my Master’s Degree in Quantity Surveying in 2018, I joined one of the leading UK main contractors working within their civil engineering and infrastructure business. Having joined as part of their Graduate Development Programme, I gained invaluable experience and exposure to the technical and analytical detail of how projects are planned and built, covering elements of construction from inception to completion. I also had the pleasure of working alongside clients and designers within their office settings, enabling true collaborative working and establishing strong working relationships. I have a vast amount of knowledge from working on several schemes of values varying from $3 – $100 million and look forward to taking the skills I have developed in the industry and applying these to a range of opportunities at Turton Bond.

Since earning my Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering from Morgan State University in 2022, I joined a leading New York and Maryland construction contractor where I gained experience across both private sector and federal projects respectively. I have contributed to high-profile developments in New York City, including a large-scale luxury residential skyscraper, as well as a critical infrastructure airport project. These roles have allowed me to refine my skills in project coordination, cost management, and stakeholder collaboration, while working with clients, contractors, and multidisciplinary teams. I have been able to leverage a diverse skill set including project coordination, cost management, stakeholder collaboration, trade management, and regulatory compliance. These skills have enabled me to efficiently manage complex construction operations, align cross-functional teams, and ensure seamless delivery within both private-sector and federal environments.
