Facilities Manager

Top Management

WA
Responsible for comprehensive Facilities Management of a portfolio of 11 medical centers throughout the Puget
Sound region. Square footage: 270,000 (critical, clinical, and administrative) Budget $17.6m
Directed work from consolidated teams in: Integrated Facilities Management, Mechanical, Engineering, and Plumbing (MEP), Landscaping, Pest Control, Environmental Services, Security Management, Lease Administration.
Including services in: Energy Management, Value Creation, Project Management Oversite, Safety, Risk Analysis,
and Construction/Renovations. Provided Property Management services for a client owned building leased to tenants. Currently leading our teams through new paradigms of change management due to COVID-19 response. In
Q2 2017, I was awarded the CBRE RISEN award for demonstrated leadership, recovery of client relations and confidence within my first two quarters.

Managed a portfolio of 13 sites to include multiple spaces located at Seatac Airport Approximately 550,000 Square
feet (not including significant exterior responsibilities) and a budget of approximately $9 million. Including the Airline's headquarters, Flight Training Center, Data Center, Hangars, Lounges, Offices, and Boarding bridges.
Services provided include: Integrated Facilities Management, Business Analytics, Landscaping, Janitorial, Boarding
Bridges, Pest control, Sodium glycol plant management, MEP, and Vendor Management. Directed self-performed
work for Mobile Building Engineers of varied trades. I developed the team into a model where they were able to better self-perform tasks that would have previously been sent to vendors, such as Electrical, Painting, Airplane
boarding bridges, and Sodium glycol plant maintenance thus providing a cost avoidance of approximately $1mil
annually but more importantly growing the airline's trust in our Engineers to perform critical tasks that kept them in the air. I was often called upon to provide quantitative reports pertaining to efficiencies of labor and craft utilization
compared to KPIs/SLAs, SWOT reports to our leadership and proposals for capital improvement projects or
budgetary considerations. In this role we would often provide emergency response and successfully provide
solutions to critical concerns that would negatively affect the entire organization. During this time, I was awarded the Spirit of Sodexo national award for our team's on time integration of an acquired large airline and its assets into
our systems.

well as upgrades of restrooms, water treatment and storage areas nationally.

region consisting of 520,000 sqft of clinical space and a $5.2mil budget. Credited with service recovery of a region
