Architect for Life with Lolalisa King

She obtained an MBA in Finance and Investment Banking from the University of  Wisconsin at Madison, USA.  By combining her technical and business backgrounds,  she made her mark at a, then, regional bank headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina.   There, she developed an evaluation system of checkpoints for loan administrators to  utilize when servicing multi-million dollar construction loans.  She obtained a clear  understanding of how the financial packages should be completed to obtain financing for multi- million dollar projects.  

At the one-time largest architectural-engineering firm in the southeast United States, approximately 1600 employees, she made her mark by establishing a benchmark for dealing with clients and contractors.  She used her technical expertise and business savvy to negotiate the best deals and conduct the most productive meetings.  She had a gift for calming the most irate contractor or the most difficult client.  Some of the buildings for which she was a major contributor include Emerald Point Water Park, Sears Customer Service Center, Airport Business Park, the Greensboro Municipal Building Conference Room, the third floor addition to Four Seasons Town Center, the Molecular Biology and Glaxo Research Laboratories at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, plus numerous aviation, office, educational, commercial, industrial, medical and manufacturing facilities throughout the state of North Carolina.
