• Performed smoke test and dye test investigations of sewer mainlines and laterals. Identified areas of sagging manholes and other areas prone to high inflow potential. • Created progress maps for clients, analyzed existing sewer infrastructure, and produced field surveying maps for field crew using novel software combined with ArcGIS/CAD drawings.• Designed remediation options for identified inflow and infiltration (I/I) sources (residential downspouts, catch basins, surface drains, etc.), including working plans and associated costs.• Act as front line contact and support for clients and stakeholders involved with stormwater monitoring and remediation projects.• Demonstrated the application of novel mapping software for environmental services to existing and potential clientele. • Using ArcGIS – performed water table analysis to determine sewer infrastructure prone to higher infiltration. Identified areas with higher infiltration than allowable under OPSS 410 guidelines.• Performed manhole inspections to identify defects in existing infrastructure. Captured photo and video evidence of defected manholes and created remediation reports.

• Water Quality and Stream Ecosystems Guided students through weekly lab sessions using various field equipment and techniques. Graded technical reports and provided knowledgeable feedback.• Fundamentals of Hydrology Introduced new hydrological concepts and provided students with knowledgeable feedback during weekly tutorial sessions. Marked examinations and lab reports, providing timely and constructive feedback to students.• Environmental Soil Science Introduced and guided students through weekly experiments relating to the physical and chemical properties of soils collected around campus, leading to enhanced knowledge in soil sampling techniques (i.e. analyzing physical and chemical properties of soils and soil classification).

• Research site set-up for precipitation partitioning experiment in two swamps northwest of Brampton, ON. • Installed piezometers in former agricultural area for groundwater monitoring in Brampton, ON. • Planted over 250 wetland shrubs for a common garden experiment in Brampton, ON. • Climbed and pruned various tree species for leaf hydrophobicity experiment near Alliston, ON. • Extracted soil cores from raised-bog wetland (Osprey Wetland) near Orangeville, ON.• Ran chemical analyses on collected water samples using a Hach IL-550 dissolved organic carbon (DOC)/ total nitrogen (TN) analyzer, Lachat Quikchem 8500 (nitrate and ammonium), UV-VIS Spectrophotometer and Horiba Aqualog Fluorometer for various experiments conducted in Brampton, Guelph, Barrie and Mississauga.

• Help to monitor and maintain 27 real-time stream gauging networks throughout the Credit Valley watershed.• Perform site assessments for risks such as ice/debris jams as well as bank stability issues.• Measure stream cross-sections for length, depth and stream velocity using various equipment and procedures to develop discharge estimations for all gauged streams.• Perform land surveys to develop topographic profiles at each gauging site. • Analyze, manage and provide QA/QC for water resource data, including stream flow, snow survey and climate datasets.

• Maintained the overall appearance and cleanliness of the factory and surrounding grounds.• Properly used and maintained various tools and machinery, including tractors for lawn mowing and snow removal, weed trimmers, augers and impact drills. • Designed and fabricated materials and structures necessary for the different departments within the factory.• Received product deliveries, ensuring order and invoice accuracy, thus improving internal efficiency. • Followed all health and safety procedures (proper waste disposal, PPE use, pre-operational checks).• Obtained aerial lift operating certificate and forklift certificate in October, 2012.
