      Sept 2019 - Jul 2021

      ∙ Designing and managing the construction of 32 various hospital rooms to run simulations with health care workers to optimize discrete room layouts and equipment for functionality and efficacy. ∙ Managed a team of engineers and craft to deliver project milestones under budget and ahead of schedule by creating comprehensive project budgeting, scheduling, and production analysis. ∙ Created cost projections, network flow and production investigations, and early constraint detections by gathering and analyzing data sets. ∙ Produced weekly executive summaries that effectively communicate technical analyses to the stakeholders. Show less ∙ Worked with engineers and architects to solve design issues including structural and aesthetic. Tasks included drafting drawings, engineering computations, providing recommendations, cost and schedule impacts, and feasibility. ∙ Worked with the owner to interpret their needs and wants into cost-effective actionable plans. ∙ Helped to develop and implement the last planner system (LPS) for project-based production. Duties included running scheduling meetings, creating look-ahead plans, identifying and resolving constraints, and analyzing and interpreting data. ∙ Operated as the project site lead for Boston Dynamics and Holobuilder joint venture beta testing of SPOT robot for widespread product deployment on construction sites. Ran onsite missions and created diagnostics to provide key insights to the engineering and product development teams. Show less
