About

My goal is to pursue an education and a career in civil/construction engineering, research, and management, while maintaining a strong consideration for the sustainability and welfare of the environment. I am especially interested in jobs that involve working in the office with other skilled engineers as well as the opportunity to travel and work in the field. I am geared toward working with companies that highly value sustainability and renewable energy research/development. I eventually aim to make a strong impact in the construction industry, particularly in the public sector, through the implementation of green construction, a focus in sustainability, the use of recycled materials, value engineering, and renwable energy sources. Specialties: Civil Engineering, Geotechnical & Tunneling Systems, Construction & Project Management, Parks and Recreation, skatepark construction, non-profit organization and team management, AutoCADD, videography and photography
