Water Resources Engineer

• 2017 - 2019

I have competed a wide range of planning, channel design and restoration projects which have been subject to the EA process. These projects involved proposal writing, data gathering (background studies, topographic surveys, etc.), detailed site assessments, evaluation of existing geomorphic and geophysical processes, development of hydraulic models, update of existing hydraulic models, problem identification, modeling of solutions, concept design development and detailed design. Examples of my project experiences are listed below:• Mimico Creek Detailed Design To Protect Sanitary Sewer Trunk, City of Toronto.• Erosion Hazard & Flooding Assessment of the Credit River Tributary at 2207 Embleton Road, Brampton.• Roseland Creek Erosion Control Project – From Upper Middle Road to Guelph Line, Burlington.• Grey Abbey Slope Stabilization, TRCA.• Tuck Creek Erosion Control from Billings Court to Harvester Road, City of Burlington.• Mill Creek Erosion Restoration EA & Design, Town of Orangeville.• Strom Outfall Erosion at Mill Street, Town of Aurora. • Geomorphic, Hydraulic, and Ecological Summary, Jane Street Culvert, City of Toronto. Replacement.• Ramsey Lake Subwatershed Study and Master Plan using CE-QUAL model, City of Sudbury. • Lynde Creek Hydraulic, Geomorphic & Fisheries Assessment in Support of Jeffery Park Redevelopment, Town of Whitby, ON• Hydraulic Analysis for West Dean Park Pedestrian Bridge #2 Repairs, Serdika Consulting Inc, Toronto, ON.
