What I'm looking for

I am seeking a civil engineering role focused on site design, construction management, or drilling operations where I can apply technical design skills, field experience, and regulatory knowledge to deliver timely, safe, compliant projects.

I am a civil engineer with hands-on experience in construction, site design using Autodesk Civil 3D, and oil & gas drilling operations. I hold an M.S. in Civil Engineering and have applied laboratory and field testing standards to concrete research projects.

In practice I have reviewed survey plans, performed jurisdictional permitting research, coordinated with zoning offices, and produced site and erosion-control plans for commercial and residential projects. I have practical pipeline and drilling rig experience from internships in Saudi Arabia, and supported testing of concrete samples to ASTM standards in a university research role.

I bring strong technical software skills (Civil 3D, AutoCAD, Microsoft Project, Bluebeam), OSHA-30 safety training, and a detail-oriented approach to ensure projects meet regulatory and client requirements. I seek roles where I can apply my civil design, construction management, and drilling operation experience to deliver timely, code-compliant solutions.
