Professional Profile and Goals
I am a licensed civil engineer with more than a year of professional working
experience in structural design of various vertical structures. This involves structural
modelling, analysis, detailing 2D drawings, preparation of plans, and on-site
inspections. With the skills I have learned so far, I am willing to work in a
challenging environment and share the knowledge I have on college students in
the civil engineering field so I can achieve personal and professional development
in my career.
