Hi there! I just finished my master's study in Civil Engineering, focusing on Engineering and Project Management at UC Berkeley, in December 2023 with a GPA of 3.92. I completed my B.S. in Civil Engineering with a GPA of 3.80. I have already added a Graduate Certificate in Applied Data Science and an Engineering and Business for Sustainability Certificate to my academic achievements.Skills & Expertise:• MATLAB, Python, C++, Julia• Lean Construction and Takt Planning• Supply Chain Management• Life Cycle Assessment• Construction Management• Conflict Resolution in ConstructionCertifications:• Engineer in trained (EIT)• Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)Working Experience:My practical experience is extensive and varied, contributing significantly to the China Renewable Energy Engineering Institute. In my recent role as a Construction Assistant, I led efforts to streamline project efficiency, notably improving material and labor productivity, and reducing both storage costs and completion times through lean construction skills. My expertise in project management tools and collaborative skills were instrumental in managing a hydropower station project with a significant budget. Previously, I made pivotal contributions to environmental engineering, developing sustainable LCA guidelines for hydropower decommissioning, enhancing safety and environmental compliance onsite, and establishing a framework for evaluating the sustainability of over a thousand small hydropower stations, which was adopted in several operational guidelines. These experiences underscore my commitment to advancing sustainable engineering practices and project management excellence.As a Teaching Assistant at UC Berkeley, I delivered programming instruction to over 200 students per term, enriching their understanding of data science and algorithms via Python and MATLAB.Research & Projects:My research works in lean construction and takt planning, enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of projects. I have hands-on experience researching the environmental impact of small hydropower plants and have been actively involved in projects like automating a water treatment station, life-cycle assessment, and supply chain management with Webcor.I am collaborating with Professor Iris Denise Tommelein on the development and maintenance of our mistakeproofing website. https://p2sl-mistakeproofing.berkeley.edu/I'm eager to collaborate on projects that push the boundaries of engineering and project management to create sustainable, efficient, and impactful solutions.
