Ira Heppard

Hello,

I am eager to bring my skills and enthusiasm to a challenging role that will help me grow within the construction industry. My four-year collegiate soccer career has established a solid foundation of hard work, discipline, and effective communication with people from different backgrounds to achieve a common goal. My business degree has equipped me with project management, problem-solving, and strategic thinking skills.

My internship experience has developed my streamlined data-capturing, logistical, and organizational skills. With that said, I am ready to work and contribute positively to an organization!
