My expertise lies in managing and assisting in the analysis of schedule delays, disruptions, and the calculation of construction damages on a wide range of projects, including infrastructure, industrial, and mining projects in the U.S. and Australia. I am proficient in utilizing Primavera P6 and MS Project for scheduling and project management purposes.I have successfully executed research and analysis for schedule, damage, and issue-related disputes on construction projects, demonstrating my skills in claim and dispute resolution. I have provided support throughout the project lifecycle, helping stakeholders identify delays and ensure compliance with contractual obligations. I have also performed damage and disruption analysis, quantifying costs associated with damages, assessing productivity and labor inefficiencies, evaluating change orders, and assisting in the preparation of expert reports and other client communications.I have also actively managed costs for large-scale Oil & Gas capital projects at a refinery plant, valued at approximately 100MM dollars. My project management skills and in-depth knowledge of the industry have enabled me to identify potential cost overruns and provide valuable recommendations to my clients. I have effectively collaborated with stakeholders to optimize project performance and ensure the timely delivery of high-quality results. My expertise in cost management has proven valuable in ensuring project profitability and success.I\'m always looking to connect with new people in the industry! Feel free to reach out to me at c••••••••@fticonsulting.com if you want to chat. I\'ve got a B.S. and M.S. in Civil Engineering with a focus on construction management and architectural engineering from the University of Cincinnati. During my time there, I did some co-ops as a facilities engineer with The Kroger Company, and I\'ve also had some great engineering internships that gave me some solid experience with cost development, management, and project scheduling for various construction projects.
