Profile

As a Director of Land Acquisition with a comprehensive background in construction, land development, and real estate strategy, I bring a 360-degree understanding of how projects evolve from raw land to completed communities. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to lead initiatives across every stage of the development lifecycle—from site selection and due diligence to construction management and final delivery.

My hands-on experience in construction allows me to evaluate land not just for its potential, but for its practical feasibility. I specialize in identifying high-opportunity sites, navigating entitlement processes, and aligning land strategies with long-term business goals. I thrive in cross-functional environments, collaborating with engineers, builders, municipal officials, and executive teams to drive projects forward efficiently and profitably.

Passionate about smart growth and sustainable development, I am committed to creating value for stakeholders while contributing to vibrant, livable communities.
