About

Field judgment backed by disciplined documentation and business training.

My work focuses on the quality, compliance, and coordination needed to support public infrastructure responsibly. At Arcadis, I inspect active bridge and roadway construction, verify work and materials against project requirements, document field conditions and quantities, and communicate deficiencies or changing conditions to contractors, supervisors, engineers, and client representatives.

I also provide part-time litigation support involving records analysis, discovery summaries, confidential digital workflows, and independent deadline management. Combined with my Emory business education, these experiences support project coordination, operations, compliance, legal operations, and technology-enabled process improvement.
