EXPERIENCE
Graduate Research Assistant, Woolpert, Inc.,
Jan 2009 - July 2010
Stillwater, Oklahoma
. Developed and conducted experiments to correlate turbidity and TSS for
construction site runoff.
. Established the relationship between turbidity and TSS for primary
particle classes of different soils.
. Researched and developed a model that predicts the effluent turbidity of
runoff to meet U.S. EPA standards.
. Performed statistical analysis to examine the effect of particle size
variation on turbidity.
. Prepared weekly reports for new developments and presented results to the
company executives.
. Simulated various combinations of stormwater runoff to estimate BMPs
performance.
