As a project designer I am applying structural engineering practices and software to bring design concepts to life. Using project management skills and my knowledge on materials I work to create economically viable options for creative projects that are safe and long lasting.

- obtain clients who need projects completed, such as sheds, farming structures, and garden beds that can serve the clients needs- produce an estimated project cost and a detailed schedule for completion, (i.e I estimated a 20’ x 8’ work shed to cost $1,000 to be built in three weeks with wood framing, an asphalt shingle roof, and concrete pier foundation; using reclaimed and discounted materials to lower the building cost, creating an innovative design to make the structure aesthetically pleasing, and creating space to fully meet the clients needs)- use my skills and developed experience of basic building knowledge and operation of tools to construct projects including materials such as metal, wood, earth/adobe, concrete, and fabric to create stable structures

During my time at GeoTek I obtained valuable knowledge and practices pertaining to geotechnical engineering that will serve to add to the diversity of my engineering career. I devoted time to working with clients and professionals to manage projects, meet deadlines, and satisfy engineering requirements. I practiced engineering concepts such as the use of soil bearing capacity, slope stability, drilled shaft soils strength, embedded anchors, geo textile soil fortification, dewatering techniques, and grouting techniques. I was exposed to the diverse conditions of soil affecting structures which includes hydro collapsible soil, expansive soils, soluble soils, soils with high sodium sulfate, soils with high chlorides, and oversized materials. I was also exposed to the affects these soil conditions have on a structure such as heaving, settlement, differential settlement, steel reinforcement attacks, concrete attacks, surcharge, stability, and various types of soil failure. I assembled professional reports that covered various sections of local and international code to confidently portray standards of practice for geotechnical engineering. I worked on projects as small as residential casitas to and as large as multi family structures or commercial buildings. I became familiar with procedures of assessing problems, performing tests, and applying laboratory results to provide professional recommendations to solve the problems. These tests included direct shear, consolidation, density, swell, borings, sieve analysis, moisture content, R-value, shear wave, resistivity and manometer. I used references standard to the practice of engineering to determine necessary values for factors of safety, skin friction, bearing pressure and lateral and passive earth pressure for use in professional recommendations.
