Before a kitchen restoration by BELFOR

A proven track record of superior response and unmatched resources has made BELFOR the contractor of choice for damages caused by fire, water, wind or other catastrophes. What is your role in the organization? What is your background? How long have you been in the industry? I am a project coordinator for the Northern NJ office. My job is to be a liaison between clients and production

teams. I have over 30 years’ experience in client services, business development, team building and management. I have been in the industry for 10 years. Is there a specific project or program that you would like to highlight? Please describe. I was a project coordinator for a large multi family building destroyed by a devastating fire. I was respon- sible for managing the project from board up and securing the scene, through demo and reconstruction. Some of the challenges faced included searching for and recovering valuables in a dangerous and unstable structure. Another challenge conquered was coordinat- ing coverages, preferences, and selections of multiple parties involved.
