What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an opportunity to grow in civil engineering, contribute to construction projects, apply my inspection and design skills, and learn from an experienced team.

I've supported civil engineering work with Guyana's Ministry of Home Affairs, evaluating bidding documents, conducting site inspections, and completing bill-of-quantities calculations.

My experience includes reviewing plumbing and electrical work, concrete pouring, foundation strength tests, sand filling, and structural column and bar spacing. I've also assisted with equipment setup, validation, and operational checks.

Through projects reconstructing a police station and a university walkway using rice ash, I've produced AutoCAD drawings, analyzed designs and loads, evaluated materials, and researched more eco-friendly construction approaches.
