What is the most unusual or interesting part of your job?
The most meaningful project I’ve worked on was the ConocoPhillips Outdoor Event Center. We created custom metal planters and a perforated metal screen wall that intertwined with a wood cladding wall. The finished product was very impressive. We also incorporated irrigation, soil, plants, and trees, which added to the aesthetic.
What is your favorite outdoor space?
The golf course.
What does it mean to you to be a solution-ist?
Being a solution-ist means accepting that challenges are part of the job. You’ll deal with unexpected issues daily, and while you can try to mitigate them, some things are beyond your control. It’s important to put your head down and focus on finding solutions. Our main responsibility as project managers is to reach out, seek answers, and tackle any problems that arise.
