Civil Designer with over 7 years of experience in civil engineering and 11+ years in AutoCAD, currently serving as a Design Coordinator overseeing multidisciplinary design efforts leading a team of 7 Designers. I offer competitive rates while delivering high-quality, efficient results across civil and architectural projects. I specialize in: -Utility Plans (Core competence is in Gas while I have a general understanding of Water, Sewer, Sanitary and Electrical) -Existing & Proposed Condition Plans -Civil and Architectural plan set creation for permitting and/or construction purposes -CAD File Cleanup & Conversion (incl. MicroStation to AutoCAD) -Grading Plans & Surface Modeling (using contours) -3D Utility Networks, Surfaces & Profiles -2-Line Diagrams & Construction Details -Residential & Commercial Architectural Drawings (with 3D modeling) -MEP Drafting Support (Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC coordination) Fluent in AutoCAD, Civil 3D, ArcGIS, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office Suite for project tracking and coordination. Bonus: I have a natural eye for visual design and occasionally create graphics for presentations and proposals.

I am a passionate and driven engineer specializing in optical and mechanical systems, with a strong background in research, design, and innovation. In October of 2024 I founded Apereon Imaging, a startup dedicated to advancing photography using innovative optical design. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering and Astronomy from the University of Maryland and recently completed my Master's degree in Design Engineering at the Universitat Politècnica de València. Professional Experience: From May 2020 to May 2021, I contributed to groundbreaking work at the MIT Haystack Observatory for the Mars Oxygen ISRU Experiment (MOXIE), a payload on NASA's 2020 Mars Rover Perseverance. My focus was on developing fluid dynamic models of the MOXIE filter, culminating in a first-author presentation at the International Conference on Environmental Systems in 2021. In the summer of 2021, I interned remotely with NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where I developed a thermal model of the MOXIE inlet tube using Thermal Desktop integrated with AutoCAD. These roles honed my ability to collaborate across global teams, as well as to work independently and effectively in remote environments. In summer 2023, I worked as an Optomechanical Design Engineer at Mettler Toledo Autochem in Columbia, Maryland, where I further expanded my expertise in optomechanical design and engineering.
