Civil engineer and senior estimator driving cost-effective delivery on large public works projects.
What I'm looking for
I am a civil engineer and senior estimator with over five years of experience in project management, cost estimation, and pre-construction for large-scale public works. I specialize in budget optimization, supplier negotiation, and documentation control, delivering measurable cost savings and improved bid competitiveness.
At MPI-GDL I led cost estimation for multi‑million‑dollar bids, identified scope gaps that unlocked an additional $300K in potential change orders, and negotiated supplier agreements that reduced costs by 8–12%. I have guided cross‑functional teams of up to 15 staff and supported legal dispute resolutions that avoided penalties and preserved over $1M.
I combine strong technical proficiency in AutoCAD, Revu, Procore, and advanced MS Office with leadership, analytical thinking, and bilingual communication to ensure projects finish on time and within budget. I seek roles where I can apply strategic negotiation and documentation control to deliver reliable, cost‑effective construction outcomes.
