ACADEMIC PROJECT EXPERIENCE

PROJECT SCHEDULING AT MICHIGAN TECH 2008-PRESENT

* Two years' research experience with Primavera and an interactive resource-loaded schedule simulation (ICDMA);

* Improved the scheduling theory by applying activity splitting technique to manage critical activities and resource continuity simultaneously [Paper Published in 2012];

* Independently collected project information and created Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for a two-month commercial steel frame office ($0.3 million) and a two-year highway reconstruction project ($20 million);

* Established logical activity sequences, estimated resource usage and activities' duration to develop resource-loaded baseline schedules for the office and highway projects using CPM and LS;

* Forecasted criticality index of activities at pre-construction stage of highway project[Paper Published in 2012];

* Updated schedule progress and tracked critical activities by continuously performing critical path analyses;

PROJECT COST AND SCHEDULE CONTROLS AT MICHIGAN TECH 2008-PRESENT

* Prepared quantity take-offs and established project budgets by applying them to unit rates in RS-Means;

* Implemented Earned Value Method to identify schedule variance, and developed corrective decisions of resource allocation for the office and the highway reconstruction projects [Paper Published in 2011];

* Forecasted project duration and cost by Monte Carlo simulation [Paper Published in 2011];;

* Generated reports of cost, schedule, and resource for highway reconstruction project in Primavera P6;

* Identified cost and schedule efficient strategies at pre-construction stage of office and highway projects by designing simulation experiments, performing distribution analysis and hypothesis testing of simulated data in SPSS [Paper Published in 2010];

PROJECT RISK MANAGEMENT AT MICHIGAN TECH 2008-PRESENT

* Established risk event database by re-establishing as-built highway reconstruction project ($20 million) from historical database of FieldManager, including pre-condition, post-condition, and probabilities of each event;

* Developed guidelines of resource allocation policies (material, space, labor, equipment) to design management strategies to manage construction contingencies [Paper Published in 2010];

PROJECT ENGINEER ASSISTANT INTERNSHIP AT JIANGSU HONGSHENG CONSTRUCTION GROUP, CHINA 2006 JUL-AUG

Successfully engaged in a wide range of assignments & complete foundation job of a $6.5 million dormitory building.

* Interpreted and reviewed blueprints & project drawings and specifications for corrections;

* Performed surveying to set up foundation job;

LED STUDENT ORGANIZATION AND RESEARCH GROUPS AT MICHIGAN TECH 2011-PRESENT

* Directed simulation research group in developing simulation software and applying it as education tool;

* Directed undergraduate research group in studying project scheduling, resource allocation and leveling in MS Project, construction management, and lean construction;

* Ran Michigan Tech Badminton Club; coordinated budget preparation and use, weekly practice and tournaments;
