Field Engineer CWR Contractors Wildwood, Florida, USA June 2025 – August 2025

• Worked on several ongoing civil construction projects at once, developing practical skills in areas like grading, utilities, asphalt, surveying, safety, cost estimation, scheduling, vehicle management, and bookkeeping.

• Helped field crews understand plans by organizing layouts, managing earthwork tasks, tracking material movement, handling trucking needs, supporting GPS-guided equipment, and checking work accuracy during grading projects.

• Working beside utility teams during water and sewer jobs meant handling everything from digging safely to checking system integrity under pressure. Sometimes it involved moving water away from work zones, setting up access points in underground structures, mapping out where pipes would run.

• Helped with surveys, doing work like setting benchmarks, marking slopes, laying out drainage paths, and sketching structure plans straight from blueprints.

• Asphalt operations became accessible through hands-on involvement in plant workflows, mix planning, density checks, material specifications, site layout estimates, and coordinating hauls by truck.

• Safety on the jobsite moved forward because of JHAs, toolbox talks, traffic control planning, OSHA compliance, PPE monitoring, and weekly inspections.

• Working on estimates and project organization meant doing things like preparing quantity lists, tracking how fast work moved, setting up prices for subcontractors, following costs step by step, plus handling simple timelines.

• Working alongside superintendents, project engineers, and subcontractors allowed coordination across several projects while keeping to schedule, safety, and quality goals.

ACADEMIC PROJECTS & ACTIVITIES

Collection & Analysis of Bio-Geophysical Status and Evolution of Land in New Amaravati by Using SAR- Data – Andhra Pradesh

• Collected and analyzed Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data in remote sensing technique to determine whether Amaravati is suitable to be the state capital or not.

• Checked the claims of the Chief Minister by assessing the land stability, environmental effect, and urban growth prospect using geospatial tools.

• Applied GIS tools and remote sensing software for image processing and analysis of satellite data for precise land evaluation.

• Presented the results with data analysis, which supports the findings and discusses the factors that may affect the appropriateness of Amaravati as a capital city.

AIT Innovation Camp – New Technologies of Development – Bangkok, Thailand Dec 2022 – Jan 2023

• Attended seminars and workshops on Geo-Informative Systems, Transportation Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Construction Safety and International Construction Laws.

• Direct observation of the construction processes was done through site visits to several construction sites in Bangkok, Thailand to embrace on advanced construction techniques and safety measures. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

• Leadership & Volunteering: Students' Union President, KL University (2022).

• Participated in blood donation camps from 2020-2023 and university events.
