About

I am an experienced professional engineer with nine years of expertise in coordinating, planning, and designing residential and commercial projects. My focus the last 5 years have been on hyperscaler data centers. My project experience also includes healthcare facilities, commercial developments, sports arenas, and residential projects. My background spans Civil and Structural Engineering, construction planning, water sensitive urban design, site investigation, and contract administration. With a strong understanding of both civil and structural systems, I work closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure seamless coordination and well-integrated project outcomes. I believe, as Albert Einstein said, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” I am committed to continuous learning and aim to improve myself by 1% each day — always striving to be a better version of who I was yesterday.
