· Conduct structural analyses using finite element programs (i.e. ADINA, LS-DYNA, and GT STRUDL) to study and review structural and seismicbehavior of various projects.· Perform finite element soil-structure interaction (SSI) analysis using SASSI for nuclear structures, embedded or underground structures and platform structures.· Produce site-response analyses using one-dimensional programs such as SHAKE, DEEPSOIL, SASSI and LS-DYNA.· Engage in structural model development… Show more · Conduct structural analyses using finite element programs (i.e. ADINA, LS-DYNA, and GT STRUDL) to study and review structural and seismicbehavior of various projects.· Perform finite element soil-structure interaction (SSI) analysis using SASSI for nuclear structures, embedded or underground structures and platform structures.· Produce site-response analyses using one-dimensional programs such as SHAKE, DEEPSOIL, SASSI and LS-DYNA.· Engage in structural model development, finite element & site-response analyses, and post-processing of results. Independent and systematic checking of results and calculations is also accomplished for QA/QC using Excel and other executable programs.· Prepare calculation documents and reports by developing figures, diagrams, plots, tables, and write-ups for project correspondence.· Briefly reviewed design criteria and codes (i.e. AISC, ACI, AASHTO, Caltrans Seismic Design Criteria, etc.) to gather information needed for further project analyses.· Assisted in ground motion development by producing design acceleration response spectra, response spectra matching of earthquake SEED motions, and displacement baseline correction of data.

Berkeley, Ca

Taught Algebra 2 to first-generation, low-income high school students every Saturday during the academic school year. Lessons were conducted on the UC Berkeley campus.

Russellville, Ar

Performed seismic walkdowns and area walk-bys in nuclear facilities to identify selected equipment items and areas requiring attention to promote proper equipment performance/maintenance and earthquake safety.

Ann Arbor, Mi

Assisted professors with grading students’ homework assignments for undergraduate structural engineering courses.

Berkeley, Ca

Tutored first-generation, low-income high school students with math and physics homework assignments after school. Served as an assistant teacher for the Calculus class during their summer academic program.

Richmond, Ca

· Created an academic exercise with K’NEX to inspire students to obtain interest in earthquake engineering.· Prepared and organized video slides of K’NEX structures in a laboratory-regulated shaking table for earthquake engineering lectures for visiting students.· Finalized evaluation results from participating students to affirm the efficiency of the exercise.
