I received an excellent opportunity to showcase my knowledge from school as an electrical engineering student!**Accomplishments & Projects** -----------------------------------------------AutoCAD was used for 90% of the work I did with SMP Engineering. For three months, I worked on a very large project, making critical revisions/updates for the Calgary South Health Campus.*Project Goal*:Make critical revisions/updates for all electrical systems associated with the South Health Campus*How I Achieved This*:Took the time to review the building layout through large printed drawings. Once I was familiar with the floor layouts and different medical departments, I was able to apply my electrical systems knowledge. I made revisions to the following electrical systems:- Telecom (Data)- Power (Conduits, breakers, transformers)My first couple of months working with SMP Engineering really polished my AutoCAD skills. I worked through thousands of drawings, making detailed revisions to each according to SMP Engineering's standards.*Outcome*The South Health Campus electrical drawings became up to date. These drawings are now easily accessible in their new modernized digital form. This eliminated the need for paper-based drawing, keeping the project content easily transferable and organized.**Additional Tasks & Responsibilities**---------------------------------------------------------I took the skills and knowledge from my ENEL 519.03 - Special Topics Course: Building Electrical Design and applied them to my everyday work at SMP Engineering. This involved sizing various electrical systems/components such as:- conduit- breakers- panel schedules- lighting designDetail really matters, especially since there are various different ways to design these systems. It’s a matter of designing them with efficiency and practicality in mind. All of my work was done under the supervision of Professional Engineers and Certified Electrical Engineer Technologists.

I became part of an incredible team of building operators for the Sheldon M. Chumir Medical Centre and Calgary Board of Education Corporate Office!**Accomplishments & Projects** -----------------------------------------------I earned the respect of my fellow operators and the chief engineers quickly because of my dynamic and genuine personality. As a result of this hard earned respect, I was privileged with a unique opportunity to take charge of a project specific to the Sheldon M. Chumir building. *Project Goal*:To reduce the total electrical energy consumption of the medical center. *How I Achieved This*:By meeting with 41 different medical departments, I clarified individual department operating hours and reviewed the Douglas low voltage lighting relay system. I then grouped the relays by department and programmed their operational hours. *Outcome*:I managed to reduce the total electrical energy consumption of the Sheldon M. Chumir Medical Center by 3%.3% may not seem like a big deal, but when you take into account the size of the facility being around 300,000 square feet, with 12 floors and multiple departments requiring energy 24/hrs day, every bit of energy saving is critical. This 3% in energy savings resulted in thousands of dollars saved every year!**Additional Tasks & Responsibilities**--------------------------------------------------------I conducted daily inspections for each mechanical room. This required many hands-on tasks such as:- HVAC belt replacement- AHU, boiler pump & exhaust fan filter replacement- Lamp replacement- Elevator maintenance Conducting these tasks demonstrated how polished my practical skills are. Even though I did not encompass the same level of experience as my colleagues, I still taught them more efficient means of operating on these machines as a product of my automotive experience.I always bring new ideas to the table and get people thinking in different ways!
