What I'm looking for

I seek a role in estimation or quantity surveying where I can apply precise takeoffs, improve bid accuracy, collaborate with project teams, and grow technically within a construction-focused company.

I am a detail-oriented Civil Engineer with focused expertise in cost estimation, BOQs, tendering, and contract management. My training includes hands-on estimating experience and formal coursework in quantity surveying and Revit modeling.

During a trainee role at Digital Estimating LLC I applied estimation software and quantity take-off techniques to support accurate bids and project documentation. I have completed a professional quantity surveying program and short Revit modeling training to strengthen my technical toolkit.

I am skilled in Bar Bending Schedule (BBS) preparation, AutoCAD drafting, PlanSwift digital takeoff, ArcGIS mapping, and producing Billing/IPC documents. I combine construction methods knowledge with strong reporting, documentation, and site coordination abilities.

I pursue precise, data-driven estimation and clear communication to control costs and reduce contractual risk. I am seeking roles where I can apply my estimating and quantity-surveying skills to deliver accurate budgets and support successful project delivery.
