In today's episode, we sit down with Chris Walker, chief estimator at Lunacon.
As a Jamaican-born first-generation construction estimator, it never crossed Chris's mind that he'd make his mark in pre-construction.
Over the years, he has seen changes in the pre-construction process, making it as important as the building phase itself.
And today, Chris is here to debunk a few misconceptions about pre-construction and how he was able to leverage his soft skills to achieve rapid success in this space.
He also talks about the importance of collaboration in pre-construction, the role of technology, how to mitigate risks, and his advice to people of color looking to break into the construction industry.
