Work Experience
Talaria was a difficult project. It was my first experience as an assistant superintendent. Before the footings were even poured, our team had begun receiving architectural bulletins leading to owner-caused delays. When we reached the podium, our team did not have answers on how to frame over the 10-foot expansion joints. This caused the project to be piecemealed out to subcontractors throughout construction. The project spiraled out of control, and it took a monumental effort to regain control of the project.
The sheer number of problems plaguing the project might have been daunting to some, but I took this as an opportunity to get what must’ve been five projects’ worth of problem-solving under my belt. I embraced every issue that came my way. I was eager to tackle challenges head-on and learn. I led by example. On this job I learned how to work under pressure, put together a plan and execute.
This project is one of my most cherished experiences. It is where I discovered what I was truly capable of, and it is also why I am so passionate about the services that Corollary offers.
