Entry-Level Structural Engineer | EIT Licensed | M.S. Candidate in Civil and Environmental Engineering at The George Washington UniversitySpecializing in Structural Engineering, my Master's thesis investigates the factors influencing bridge condition ratings within the National Bridge Inventory database. As a Graduate Research Assistant, I have engaged in multiple research projects under my advisor's guidance:Post-Tensioned Lateral Force Resistant Walls: Involved in the construction and testing phases of an innovative wall designed to mitigate ground accelerations. Tasks included applying axial and lateral forces, recording responses, and analyzing data to assess structural integrity.Heavy Truck Collision Impact on Bridges: Collaborated on research analyzing the impact of heavy truck collisions on bridges. Developed MATLAB codes to simulate and analyze the responses of bridge bents to impact loads, covering 17 different bridges.Throughout my academic career, I have consistently engaged in hands-on design projects:Senior Design Project: Took charge of designing multiple steel members for a complex structure, applying industry-standard practices and tools.Reinforced Concrete Structures Course: Designed reinforced concrete slabs and beams for a hypothetical parking structure, including detailed structuring and drafting in AutoCAD.
