Representing the international retailer as design and planning leader for 80-100 projects annually for US / Canadian locations, I oversaw execution of multiple freestanding, ground-up and tenant fit-outs with site budgets ranging from $100K-$2M. Through collaboration with real estate, developers, landlords, legal, and construction teams, viability analysis and development more than 20+ new sites were completed annually.  80 locations per year were renovated or expanded in concert with in-house operations, construction and consultant architects and engineers.  My responsibility encompassed scope and budget assessment, presentations securing executive and civic review board approvals, soft cost approvals, review of construction documents, shops drawing reviews, construction administration, and frequent site visits.
