Project Manager & Construction Coordinator with 7+ years delivering complex builds on time and on budget. Architectural background, PM mindset — always.

My Work Stack
Technical construction experience combined with a proactive, solution-oriented approach to coordination and execution — the combination that makes the difference between a project that finishes and one that finishes right.
Rather than escalating every issue, Melissa identifies practical solutions independently — with the judgment to know when something needs leadership visibility and when it doesn't. You stay focused on what matters.
She transforms complex, scattered site information into clear reporting formats that give leadership instant visibility on status, priorities, and risks — without needing to chase updates.
In environments where stress drives miscommunication and delays, Melissa stays calm and solution-focused. Projects keep moving even when conditions on the ground are anything but stable.
With 7+ years coordinating construction projects across retail, hospitality, healthcare, and residential sectors, project management has always been at the core of what I do. My architectural training gives me an edge — I understand the technical, the structural, and the human side of every build.
End-to-end coordination of construction projects — scheduling, procurement, team oversight, milestone tracking, and stakeholder reporting across multi-sector builds.
Preparing and monitoring detailed project budgets, identifying cost variances, escalating risks proactively, and implementing corrective actions to keep projects on track.
Bilingual stakeholder communication (EN/ES) across clients, contractors, suppliers, and leadership — with full professional proficiency in English.
“Melissa kept every trade on schedule across our 3-floor retail fit-out. She flagged cost variances before they became problems — exactly what we needed.”
“Her bilingual communication made a real difference with our subcontractors. Reporting was always clear, timely, and stakeholder-ready.”
“She handled procurement, site coordination, and client updates simultaneously without dropping a single ball. Rare composure under pressure.”
Construction projects personally coordinated from kickoff to handover — scheduling, procurement, contractor oversight, and delivery.
