What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to civil infrastructure and site-design projects where I can develop practical engineering plans, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and public agencies, and grow my technical design experience.

I've developed site and infrastructure design plans at Vega Civil Engineering for commercial, municipal, and transportation projects, including the 82nd Avenue Transit Project Phase 2, delivered on time and 6% under budget.

At CEC Engineering, I designed sewer, water, and stormwater systems in Civil 3D, prepared engineering plans and bid documents, and performed hydrology and hydraulic calculations to improve drainage efficiency and mitigate flood risks.

I also bring a mechanical engineering foundation from Portland State University, where I helped design a vertical positional control mechanism for future wave-tank research and graduated cum laude.
