Executive Construction Leadership and Project Experience
Over more than three decades, I have worked across construction and real estate development—from residential renovations to major commercial, healthcare, hospitality, institutional, and luxury residential developments.
My experience includes executive construction leadership, owner’s representation, development oversight, due diligence, contract administration, cost control, value engineering, and project recovery.
Through The Fond Organization, I apply that experience to executive construction leadership, owner’s representation, and project due diligence and risk advisory—helping owners, developers, and investors coordinate project delivery, evaluate risks, and make informed decisions.
Experience spanning residential construction through major commercial developments valued at more than $300 million.
Areas of Leadership and Expertise
PROJECT EVALUATION & DUE DILIGENCE
My background includes evaluating real estate opportunities and reviewing the construction, financial, and operational considerations that influence project decisions. That experience helps me examine assumptions, identify missing information, and frame questions that require further investigation.
BUDGETS, SCHEDULES & CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION
Responsibilities across my career have included budgeting, cost control, scheduling, procurement, contract administration, and value engineering. These disciplines provide a practical foundation for reviewing whether project scope, cost expectations, and timing are aligned.
CHALLENGED-PROJECT REVIEW & RECOVERY
I have been brought into challenged projects to identify cost overruns, schedule delays, contractor performance issues, and operational risks, then develop strategies to improve project performance and restore owner confidence.
That work reinforces the importance of identifying warning signs early and distinguishing immediate concerns from issues requiring deeper review.
OWNER’S REPRESENTATION & EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP
My experience includes representing owners and coordinating multidisciplinary teams through planning, design, procurement, construction, and closeout—with responsibility for budgets, schedules, contracts, quality, safety, and owner communication.
Selected Industry Experience
COMMERCIAL & MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT
Executive construction leadership and owner’s representation for complex commercial and mixed-use projects, from planning and design through construction and project closeout.
HEALTHCARE
Experience directing complex healthcare projects requiring detailed coordination, disciplined scheduling, cost control, and close attention to owner requirements.
HOSPITALITY
Construction leadership and project oversight for hospitality developments and renovations involving multiple stakeholders and complex project requirements.
LUXURY RESIDENTIAL
Experience ranging from residential renovations to luxury residential projects, with responsibility for construction management, budgeting, contractor coordination, quality, and owner communication.
RENOVATION & PROPERTY IMPROVEMENT
Experience managing renovations and substantial property improvements, including budgeting, procurement, subcontractor coordination, and construction oversight.
Real Estate Investment Experience
Earlier in my career, I managed the acquisition, renovation, and resale of more than 50 residential investment properties, overseeing the process from opportunity evaluation and due diligence through construction management and final disposition.
This work provided a perspective beyond construction alone: how acquisition decisions, improvement costs, execution, and timing affect the overall investment.
Leadership Through Decisions and Delivery
Successful projects require informed decisions, clear responsibilities, and coordination among the people doing the work.
I bring practical judgment to evaluating project information, addressing challenges, and guiding teams through planning, construction, and closeout—with the owner’s objectives at the center of the process.
