Education

University of Pittsburgh Graduated – May 2013

Swanson School of Engineering

Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering: Bachelors of Science, GPA: 3.32 Cum Laude

James Cook University (Semester Abroad) Completed – Spring 2010

Cairns, Australia School of Engineering

Experience

University of Pittsburgh: Mascaro Center for Sustainable Innovation, Student Researcher May 2013 – August 2013

Sustainable Environmental Engineering research was performed in cooperation with the University of Pittsburgh

Geology Department and Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP). Research consisted of data

acquisition and analysis using Microsoft Suite, Access, and ArcGIS for the study of developing sustainable long-wall

mining practices with regard to the resilience of energy production landscapes. Research was presented to the Mascaro

Center and a formal document of results was submitted to PADEP for future implementation.

Arcadis, US, Seven Fields, PA, Technical Intern January 2011 – August 2012

I completed a three-rotation co-op as a technical intern with the environmental firm Arcadis. Working with Arcadis I

worked both in the office as well as the field. My fieldwork consisted of construction oversight, pilot testing, multiple

hydrocarbon removal techniques such as vacuum truck events, a multitude of soil and water sampling methods, as well

as lab custody chains. Working in the office I assisted in the design of remediation systems, obtained regulatory data,

and completed compliance reports.

University of Pittsburgh: American Society of Civil Engineers Student Chapter, Environmental Team Lead 2010-2013

For four years I participated in the environmental water treatment contest of the Ohio Valley Student Conference for

Civil Engineers. For three of the four years competing (2011 - 2013) I acted as team captain leading our team to place

in the top three each year. As team captain, my responsibilities included the creation of the competition objective and

guidelines, water treatment research, bench scale testing, apparatus construction, and competition execution.

University of Pittsburgh: Pitt Humanitarian Engineering and Design, Environmental Team Lead Spring 2013

Working in cooperation with CH2M Hill, I worked as the Environmental Team Leader of a team of students with the

objective to improve the living conditions of the Kuna Nega Village in Panama. The focus of our work was to address

the environmental and health concerns due to a lack of water conveyance and septic system within the community. As

the Environmental Team Leader I led a group of four students in designing a water collection and treatment system in

addition to a gravity fed septic system with an elevated sand mound leach field. Our system design was approved and

is currently being implemented in Kuna Nega Village in Panama.
