What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a role where I can apply my civil engineering and project leadership skills—preparing estimates, BOQs, and programs of works; coordinating stakeholders; and ensuring quality, safety, and cost efficiency on reputable projects.

I am a Civil Engineer with over seven years of experience in the construction industry, specializing in cost estimating, scheduling, and project implementation. Currently working with the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) in the Philippines, I am responsible for preparing detailed cost estimates and supporting project planning for various civil works projects.

I am proficient in industry tools such as Excel, PlanSwift, and Bluebeam, with a strong understanding of construction processes and cost management. Known for being detail-oriented and reliable, I consistently deliver accurate results while meeting tight deadlines.

I am open to international opportunities and eager to contribute my expertise to diverse projects while continuing to grow professionally in a global environment.
