Evergreen Structures provides a variety of services for both the residential and commercial industries. We specialize in remodels and custom builds on homes in the surrounding areas. As a structural engineer I have been the lead design engineer for multiple custom design homes around the DFW area. I have also lead remodel and renovation work on a variety of homes and small commercial properties.Each structural assessment includes a detailed drawing of the home with elevations taken throughout the first floor, an interview of the current resident to get a history of the home and any damage, a visual walk through of the exterior and interior of the home, and a report detailing the findings of the assessment. After each assessment, I sit down with the home owners and discuss my findings on site. This investigation is in accordance with a Level B investigation as detailed in the “Guidelines for the Evaluation and Repair of Residential Foundations – Version 2” by the Texas Section American Society of Civil Engineers. I also complete a variety of projects detailing the structural wood members of a residential home. Typically, the projects have been renovations or additions onto existing structures. When a homeowner wants to make alterations to their home, I first must determine the current condition of the home. This involves drawing up the entire home and making observations similar to a foundation assessment. I then inform the homeowner of the general current state of the foundation and options to improve conditions around the home before beginning demolition and construction. Next, I determine all the structural components of the home including the following: the direction of the ceiling joists and their size, where the roof is braced, and if the house is a pier and beam, then the location of the piers and direction and size of the floor joists and girders. Once all this information is gathered I can then calculate and design a solution for the homeowner.

I worked as an Installation Engineer for the Offshore Projects Group. As an Installation Engineer my job included deck designs for our vessels, structural design of our seafastening, and much more. I regularly acted as lead engineer during the mobilization of our vessel in charge of maintaining a schedule and quality checking all work completed. I am a graduate of the rotational program that Oceaneering provides for new hires. The rotation program gave me the opportunity to work on many teams and use my knowledge and experience from previous divisions to increase the quality of various projects.- Six months in the IWOCS (Installation Work Over Control Systems) group. I spent time working with HPUs, Reels, UDBs, and Flushing Units.- Six months at OPG (Oilfield Projects Group). At OPG I worked on a topside EQD system and an umbilical overboarding chute. - Six months with Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV) Engineering division in Morgan City, Louisiana. I worked on new product development for our current ROV systems.- Six months with Deepwater Technical Solutions (DTS) division in Houston, Texas. I worked on well stimulation equipment and a high pressure water jet for offshore cutting and abandonment.

Haynes Coastal Lab provides large-scale, specialized testing for model coastal, dredging, hydraulic, and offshore processes. As a student worker I assist Dr. Robert Randall with test set up, equipment calibration, facility maintenance, and various other jobs around the lab.

Oceaneering is a global oilfield provider of engineered services and products, primarily to the offshore oil and gas industry, with a focus on deepwater applications. Throughout my summer internship I helped design hot stabs for a well intervention tool, designed the potable water tanks for a barge to ensure proper ballasting, participated in a FEED study for an underwater oil field, and did a FEA on a hose deployment frame and a ROV deployment frame.
