As an aspiring Project Manager regarding the design, construction, operations, and maintenance of the nation’s infrastructure, my ambition is to shift the scales of car centric development through sustainable infrastructure projects where human and machine can harmoniously coexist. I will spearhead the widespread adaptation of bike - able and walkable urban metropolises throughout the country, along with my true passion and motive, efficient and cost - effective nationwide high speed rail. The prime directive of our industry must be the creation of environmentally friendly and energy efficient avenues of transportation to sustainably drive the perpetual expansion of our civilization. I desire to actuate the implementation of technologies that will transform the way we analyze and interpret infrastructure projects, be it through enhanced cost control in the estimating and value engineering phases, more comprehensive data collection driving unseen system optimization during the operational phase, or through usage of remote technologies such as augmented reality allowing all stakeholders to have a lasting impact 5 feet or 5000 miles from the project. As a Mechanical Engineer, I believe I've been gifted with a talent allowing me to create changes I'd like to see all over the world. I am always trying to find and conceptualize technology with a mantra of creating the greater good for humankind while maintaining the longevity of our environment.
Developed a business plan to guide our startup architectural visualization firm to prominence through brand awareness and client relations, while also learning the technicality of the architectural and construction industries. I spent time developing 3D models through civil blueprints, drafting proposals and schedules through project management software, coordinating work with subcontractors, implementing expansion into virtual reality, writing several technical and exploratory articles, and fostering relationships with several architects throughout the Southeastern United States
Spent a week participating in 3D modeling and 5 - axis CNC machining of milling and drilling tools, receiving certification regarding the virtual design, CNC production, protective coating, and quality control areas of the plant.
Designed multi - level HVAC piping for commercial developments using Autodesk CAD and Microsoft Visio, coordinating efforts and developing my project management skills through several meetings with the electrical and civil divisions of the firm.
Instructed secondary school students in algebra, trigonometry, and 3D modeling with Google Sketchup as part of an initiative aimed at spreading awareness and triggering excitement regarding the STEM field in my developing home country.
