Part of the Temporary Engineering design team that provides support to various Kiewit Construction Districts. Designed temporary structures and conditions to meet complex construction challenges on Kiewit projects nationwide.

Performed site engineering and project management for Area 4 of the $969 million I-95 HOV/HOT Lane expansion project in Washington, DC. As part of this team, I oversaw construction practices on site to ensure quality and consistency, reviewed subcontractors structural design prior to the construction of bridge components, and identified inconsistencies in the bridge design and recommended changes to improve efficiency.

Developed CAD drawings for industrial structural design and performed structural design calculations for steel framing.

Developed CAD Plans as aprt of the Site Planning Group in the Health Care Sector.
