I have worked as a structural design engineer on both new and existing buildings. I have completed both the design of full buildings, studying their global behavior, and the detailing of atypical conditions and geometrically complex connections. My portfolio includes work in the medical, educational, commercial, sports, and retail sectors and has introduced me to the design of rolled steel, concrete, cold formed steel, and masonry structures. I also work with our sustainability practice performing LCA’s to study and minimize the environmental impact of our designs from concept through CA.

Tuscaloosa, Alabama, United States

I investigated how to best connect precast bridge beams with Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) to create a resilient, cost effective standard for connections through literature review, prototype construction, test design and execution, and analysis of collected data.
