Before transitioning full time into marketing, I spent over a decade in the construction industry, where I honed my project management, budgeting, and client relationship skills. Managing large-scale projects, I developed a strong attention to detail, strategic problem-solving abilities, and the capacity to oversee complex timelines. These experiences have translated seamlessly into marketing, where I now apply the same organizational rigor, cross-functional team coordination, and client-centered focus to drive brand development, execute high-impact campaigns, and ensure measurable outcomes.
