What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging work environment that fosters growth and learning opportunities in civil engineering.

I am a dedicated civil engineer with a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from The University of Texas at Austin, graduating in August 2024. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in engineering principles, reinforced by a GPA of 3.3. I have undertaken relevant coursework in Engineering Materials, Foundation Engineering, and Project Management, which has prepared me for real-world challenges in the engineering field.

During my internship at Trihydro, I gained hands-on experience in designing pressure networks and creating essential documentation such as O&M Manuals. I also had the opportunity to shadow experienced engineers, which deepened my understanding of the design processes and project management. Currently, I am working as a Structural EIT at Freese & Nichols, where I am involved in concrete and steel design for various structures, enhancing my technical skills and practical knowledge in the field.
