Experience

1. Vacation Rental Owner

   Airbnb

   Oct 2023 — Present · Houston, TX, US

   I own and operate a real estate investment property, overseeing the full lifecycle of asset operations — from planning and budgeting to contractor coordination, quality assurance, and long-term performance optimization. This entrepreneurial experience mirrors many of the same responsibilities found in construction project management. • End-to-End Project Oversight: Planned and executed capital improvements, negotiated vendor contracts, and managed scopes of work — ensuring deliverables met schedule, quality, and budget requirements. • Lifecycle Management: Directed maintenance, inspections, and upgrades while optimizing operational systems for efficiency and ROI. • Vendor Coordination: Sourced, scheduled, and supervised contractors and service providers, tracking performance metrics and enforcing accountability throughout execution. • Performance Optimization: Increased occupancy and revenue through strategic pricing, asset enhancements, and operational workflows, demonstrating a clear understanding of value creation and project outcomes.Strategic Impact: This ownership experience deepened my understanding of the asset lifecycle, strengthened my ability to manage execution across multiple phases, and enhanced my perspective on how individual project decisions impact long-term asset value.
