BSc Civil Engineer with project management training and hands-on construction site experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a civil engineer trained at KNUST with practical experience across geotechnical, materials testing, site inspection, and structural design coursework. I have completed internships at geotechnical and consulting firms, assisted in field testing and quality inspections, and co-led research on recycled concrete aggregates.
I pair technical software skills (AutoCAD, ETABS, Prota Structure, Abaqus) with project management training and volunteer leadership experience. I am results-focused, collaborative, and committed to delivering safe, cost-effective construction solutions while continuing to grow in project delivery and structural engineering roles.
