Who I Am

Builder by nature,
entrepreneur by design.

I'm an Assistant Project Manager at Shawmut Design & Construction in Bentonville, AR, where I oversee large-scale commercial construction projects — from a $120M office building to six parking decks at $17M each — while coordinating 50+ subcontractors and maintaining direct client communication throughout.

"I don't just manage projects — I build lasting structures, systems, and relationships."

My degree in Entrepreneurship & Innovation from John Brown University (Honors, Dean's List, President's List) combined with an AA in Information Systems from Liberty University gives me a rare dual lens: the strategic thinking of a business builder and the analytical precision of a systems thinker. I bring both to every project I touch.
