Burnaby Bc

• Design and project management of operations and capital funded construction projects• Condition assessment and performance assessment of existing district facilities• Engineering review of technical submissions from municipalities, developers, provincial and regional transportation groups, utility owners and other third parties with respect to potential impacts to Metro Vancouver facilities• Compile verbal and written project updates to senior staff on a weekly basis

Vancouver Bc

• Earned top reviews from both students and professors by organizing and administering tightly scheduled 12 graded lab assignments.• Received overwhelmingly positive term-end feedback, including comments like “able to explain abstract concepts very well and clearly”, “best computer science undergraduate TA out there hands down ”, “most effective TA I had this semester. He was very helpful, but did not give us all the answers - he made you think for yourself and gave hints. No improvements need to be made - he was excellent.”

Burnaby Bc

• Assisted with the structural design of access platforms, staircases, utility bridges and tailings pond barges, resulting in 15% savings for the client in billable time• Designed and drafted steel connections as per CSA S16-09, and steel-to-concrete HILTI anchor connections, thus allowing the lead designer and drafter to better optimize their time distribution• Reviewed industrial structural designs proposed by the engineers to ensure compliance with the design codes

Surrey Bc

• Facilitated and managed the construction of two Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure projects, cumulatively worth over $15 Million, situated in the Lower Mainland• Summarized and billed extra work/change orders worth over $850,000.00, averaging a profit margin of 20%• Performed quantity estimations/take-offs, and procured material accordingly, thus allowing the project manager to focus on other aspects of construction• Recorded minutes during weekly site visits, meetings with clients, and handled addenda to engineering documents
