Qualifications
I am a professional Project Manager with over 20 years of experience in the construction and architectural industries, a dedicated leader, mentor and team-builder.

I have a passion for project and program management, and a firm conviction that the advancements will be made by  focusing on sound principles and improving practitioner competence rather than looking for the “next new thing.”

I am active in asapm in a variety of ways -- as a member of both the National Conference Planning Committee and the asapm Strategy Development “Blue Team”, as a reviewer for the aPRO Standard and the GAPPS draft Program Manager Standard, as contributor to the USA-NCB, and as an asapm evangelist on various websites.

On the personal side, I am a dedicated husband and father of seven, grandfather of three, unrepentant golf fanatic and computer geek.
