About

My field experience spans nearly 7 years, with a strong focus on the design and supervision of roads and dams. I have worked extensively on road construction projects, overseeing tasks like earthworks, grading, and paving, while ensuring compliance with design specifications and safety standards. In dam projects, I have been involved in site preparation, embankment construction, and spillway design, applying critical thinking to solve challenges related to water flow management and structural integrity.

I am proficient in budgeting, client relations, negotiation, and critical thinking, coupled with expertise in Microsoft Office Suite and water and wastewater design software like Autodesk Storm and Sanitary Analysis. Additionally, I aim to further explore advanced engineering concepts as part of your team, which I believe will help me become an even greater asset. My organizational skills and resourcefulness make me an effective leader and a quick learner, equipped to adapt to and manage field projects. These qualifications, along with my experience, make me a strong candidate for your team.
