Construction Project Manager | Scheduling, Cost Estimates & BIM
Are you looking for a project manager who bridges the gap between field reality, advanced 3D modeling, cost estimation, and strict US building codes? I am a dual-degreed civil engineer and urban planner specializing in end-to-end Construction Project Management. With 7+ years of combined experience—including managing 4 high-rise developments for a US firm—I help developers, general contractors, and engineering firms deliver projects on time, within budget, and fully compliant. Why Choose Me? California Code Expert: 3 years of hands-on experience navigating complex California planning laws, building codes, and city approval processes for high-rise structures. Tech & Cost-Driven Management: 2 years as a BIM Engineer means I leverage precise digital workflows to detect clashes, build accurate cost estimates, and optimize schedules before breaking ground. Field-Tested Foundations: 2 years of boots-on-the-ground experience as a field civil engineer ensures my planning, budgeting, and execution strategies actually work on the job site. Services I Offer: Project Planning & Scheduling: Master scheduling, critical path method (CPM), and milestone tracking.Cost Estimation & Budgeting: Quantity takeoff (QTO), pre-construction cost modeling, budget allocation, and change order management. BIM Coordination & 5D Cost Integration: 3D modeling, clash detection, 5D BIM estimation, and lifecycle management to minimize field errors and cost overruns. Permitting & Approvals: Navigating US/California agency requirements to secure project approvals smoothly. Urban & Site Planning: Feasibility studies, zoning analysis, and land-use optimization. Whether you need to untangle a zoning issue in California, streamline your project schedule, control construction costs, or coordinate BIM workflows, I bring the exact technical and financial oversight you need.
