Kyla Ballesteros
@kylaballesteros
Entry-level finance candidate with civil engineering cost estimation experience and published quantitative research.
What I'm looking for
At the Local Government Unit of Lasam, I developed a quantity takeoff and cost estimate for the finishing and electrical works of the Municipal Legislative Building. I also audited Bills of Quantities for municipal projects and prepared as-built plans in AutoCAD to support quantity verification.
I evaluated completed farm-to-market roads against project specifications and analyzed public infrastructure project life cycles from procurement to turnover.
My published research examined Total Quality Management and organizational performance in Tuguegarao City’s construction industry. I used survey data, regression analysis, and Pearson correlation to develop a TQM framework; the thesis received the Civil Engineering Department’s Best Thesis award and placed third in the college-wide search.
I’m a Registered Civil Engineer and a Cum Laude graduate of Cagayan State University. I’m seeking an entry-level finance role where I can apply analytical thinking, Advanced MS Excel, and attention to detail to cost control, financial planning and analysis, and data-based decision making.
