Client Testimonial: “From the beginning of my tenure, TI Management's Project Manager was viewed as the preferred project manager for those projects with tight deadlines and high visibility. Cindy has consistently shown an ability to work effectively with contractors, facility landlords, and Recall management to ensure shared visions and expectations for projects which she is involved in. This has proven invaluable in taking additional work off our plates and giving us a sense of ease on projects where she is involved.
She has also shown aptitude in driving projects to completion on or ahead of schedule as well as under budget. When presented with unforeseen problems or challenges, she always presents them in concise, easy to understand language and also takes it upon herself to offer effective solutions and advice on next steps. Her honesty and candor, as well as her follow through on commitments are a refreshing change from so many other project managers I have had experience working with.
Cindy has been a key cog in our project management team for the past 5 years and we have been pleased across the board with her professionalism, work-ethic, and deliverables over that span.”
