What I'm looking for

I'm seeking new challenges across different areas of chemical engineering where I can apply my quotation, estimation, and problem-solving experience, contribute value to a team, and continue learning and growing professionally.

I've supported technical quotations at Berkes Group's Energy Division, aligning client needs with engineering solutions, budgets, risk assessments, and negotiations.

As a Quotations Department Intern, I analyzed piping systems for energy-generation plants and built automated Excel estimation sheets that increased calculation accuracy by 60%.

I'm a Chemical Engineering graduate now working in operations and fabricated-products estimating at J. Furphy & Sons. I'm looking to broaden my experience across chemical engineering while contributing careful, practical problem-solving.
