Over the last four months, Facilities/Construction Management has recruited three team members who will be overseeing a range of responsibilities for the department.This summer, Jennifer Rea accepted the position of assistant dir
ector of facilities communications and engagement. The communications aspect covers the website development and maintenance, social media oversight, internal communications for the department of 400+ employees and information gathering for outside of the department. The engagement portion is defined as connecting within the department such as trainings and development opportunities but includes engaging with the campus community as well. Jennifer has been with the University of Houston for six years and is excited to continue to bring her enthusiasm to help connect and be the conduit of information.
David Geis joined the University of Houston in August and works as the assistant director of operations and utility services. He will be giving oversight to the teams that help maintain the utilities for the campus. He has over 20 years of experience in manufacturing, operations, engineering and maintenance and in the past has worked for Minute Maid, Maxwell House Coffee and Cadeco Industries. He is originally from Indiana but has lived in Texas for 21 years.
David is proud to be able to now support UH and its mission even more closely since his son is a sophomore living on campus.
October marked the month when Dwight Bradley began as the assistant director of customer service. Before coming to the University of Houston, he worked several years with the City of Houston as an Assistant Project Manager responsible for overseeing facility projects, both large and small, including the completion of a $17.5 million dollar quadrant building on the NE side of the city. He has been charged with helping to further develop and fully implement the “Revolutionizing Customer Service” initiative. F/CM has placed an emphasis on customer service and wants to make sure there is a synergistic relationship between the customer’s needs and technicians. Dwight is ready for this new challenge in his life and is quickly learning how to say, “Go Coogs!”
Each of these three employees are ready to assist the campus community and help to build the future and maintain excellence.
