I welcome, respect, and direct customers on one of Midtown Atlanta's last flat lots for Nan Thai Fine Dining. This role financially incentivizes good first impressions, so I have learned to engage and reassure all kinds of people (even celebrities.) I've also learned how to operate most vehicles on the road, with care. I have had to protect vehicles and guests, as well. This is a dynamic position that has taught me hospitality, timeliness, and how to make decisions for myself and others under pressure.

I worked in one of the biggest railyards on Norfolk Southern's network, as well as throughout the state of Georgia. Inman Yard, and the rail network as a whole, lives and dies on efficiency and safety. I was able to get a perspective, and part to play, in maintaining the Thoroughbred brand of quality. This role required precise planning and measurement, common relocation, a mind for safety, as well as long days and nights. I worked with many talented contractors, office-based employees, and engineers. I learned much about best design practices, material properties/handling, critical paths (especially during outages), maintaining safety for myself and others, and the supply chain at large.I'm grateful for this opportunity to apply my skills and learn at one of my favorite places since I was a child: the railroad!

I assisted Clark Construction, Atkinson Construction, and Technique Concrete in the construction of a new segment of the Plane Train at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport. This $280+ million dollar job gave me an incredible look into the fields of construction, engineering, and design. I worked with industry-leading specialists on the progressive design and construction of new tunnel, rail, security checkpoints, ground transit infrastructure, subterranean utility spaces, escalator and elevator systems, and parking lot without disrupting the world's busiest airport. This role taught me a lot about contract negotiation and fulfillment, design-build construction, workflows/critical paths, industry-leading safety standards, operations management, and the structure of communication between clients, contractors, subcontractors, design teams, and departments of the government.This experience inspired me to change my field of study to Civil Engineering.

I operated and maintained an industrial kitchen to provide food and drink to guests at the region's largest waterpark.
