I deliver cost and quantity takeoffs for U.S. residential and commercial projects as an independent freelance estimator, helping clients improve bid success by up to 30%.

I use PlanSwift, Bluebeam, Excel, and RSMeans to develop precise estimates across Divisions 2–10. I also support RFI drafting, pre-construction risk reviews, proposal development, and project sourcing through PlanHub, Construct Connect, Building Connected, Pantera, iSqFt, and Dodge.

At Paramount Construction, I managed cost and material takeoffs for more than 20 home construction projects while maintaining cost variance under 5%. I negotiated vendor savings of 10–15% and managed pre-construction reviews, value engineering, bids, contracts, and change orders.

Earlier, I supervised residential projects at Ayda Realty and Development Corporation and supported civil engineering delivery at Tarlac 3G Construction and Development Corporation. I'm a Registered Civil Engineer focused on accurate estimating, practical coordination, and on-time project delivery.
