I'm a civil engineer (EIT) with 11 years of geotechnical engineering experience and deep daily-use expertise in AutoCAD Civil 3D. I've produced grading plans, surfaces, alignments, geologic profiles, corridors, and earthwork quantity takeoffs for real permitted projects, and I turn survey field data into clean, accurate plan sets with limited direction. Most recently I spent seven years at Tetra Tech as a Senior Project Manager, running a $2.5M/year operation with soil lab. Before that: geotechnical engineering at AECOM (including dam grouting QA in Iraq) and Brierley Associates. I work fast, communicate clearly, and deliver plan sets that are actually buildable. Available for part-time contract and project-based drafting work.

With over 5 years of specialized experience in the Permian Basin and across Texas, I provide high-precision drafting and design services for the energy and land development sectors. My expertise is rooted in the Field-to-Finish workflow, bridging the gap between raw field data and professional engineering deliverables. I don’t just "draw lines"—I understand the underlying data. Whether it’s processing complex point clouds in Trimble Business Center or designing Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) sections in AutoCAD Civil 3D, I focus on technical accuracy, regulatory compliance, and clean, organized CAD standards. Technical Expertise: • Energy & Midstream: Pipeline drafting (including the ET-S Permian Pipeline), well pads, and facility as-builts. • Land Surveying: Boundary analysis, ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys, and topographic mapping. • Civil Design: Subdivision platting, surface modeling (TIN), and volumetric calculations for earthwork. • Project Leadership: As a former CAD Department Manager, I am highly efficient at managing my own workflows and ensuring all deliverables meet rigorous Quality Control standards. Software Stack: • Expert: AutoCAD Civil 3D, AutoCAD. • Advanced: Trimble Business Center (TBC), Carlson Survey. • Specialized: Field-to-Finish automation and point cloud processing. Why Hire Me? Based in San Antonio, Texas, I am a member of the Texas Society of Professional Surveyors (TSPS) and hold a Texas Real Estate License. This unique combination of skills allows me to navigate property law, easements, and title encumbrances with a level of insight most drafters lack. I am committed to clear communication, rapid turnaround times, and providing "plug-and-play" support for your engineering or surveying team.
