Aviation Intern | Project Management
Current
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
Supported the City of Atlanta through the joint venture program for the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport's $6 Billion capital plan for the airport's infrastructure. Worked under PEs/PMs/DMs to review electrical system design for aviation construction projects. During the summer, I focused primarily on the planning, design, and construction phases:- Discussed the art of driving a project to success by managing the scope of work, project schedule, and project budget. - Learned the detailed thinking necessary to stay proactive as a project manager to minimize risk.- Discussed the proper use of contingencies/allowances & how to pivot in the situation that the project encounters schedule/budget-threatening obstacles- Participated in field walks to conceptualize the logical process of constructing a building & better understand the connection between design work and contractor executionDuring my experience, I had the opportunity to mentor for the City of Atlanta's Summer Youth Employment Program providing career and professional advice to high school students / rising college freshman. By providing them with insight of college, these students asked questions to plan for the future. Also, I helped establish their networking skills by assisting six students create LinkedIn profiles.
