“I enjoy field coordination, particularly the problem-solving aspect, and being able to interact with the trades and learn how everything comes together. For those starting out, it’s important to be patient (you won’t know everything off the bat and that is OKAY). Slow down (Pay attention to details & remember that quality is better than quantity). Ask questions (there is no such thing as a stupid question).”
