Structural Engineering
Extensive expertise in structural design and analysis for residential, commercial, and mixed-use buildings using wood, steel, and reinforced concrete systems, including gravity and lateral load analysis, modeling, and detailing.

Seismic & Wind Design
Comprehensive knowledge of seismic and wind engineering, designing lateral-force resisting systems such as shear walls and moment frames that meet seismic and wind code requirements.

Reinforced Concrete & Steel Structural Design
Proficiency in designing reinforced concrete and steel structural systems for a wide range of building types, including tenant improvements, retrofit upgrades, and new construction projects.

Timber Engineering
Solid background in timber and wood-frame structural design, including foundations, floor and roof systems, and load-path coordination for residential and commercial projects.

Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
Application of finite element analysis methods to evaluate structural behavior and ensure code-compliant performance across various building systems.

AutoCAD & Revit
Proficient use of AutoCAD and Revit for producing complete structural drawing sets, calculations, and specifications for permitting and construction.

SAP2000 & ETABS
Experience with SAP2000 and ETABS structural analysis software for modeling and evaluating building structures under various load conditions.

Masonry Structures & Structural Dynamics
Knowledge of masonry structural systems and structural dynamics principles applied to building design and analysis.

Tekla Structures & ANSYS
Familiarity with Tekla Structures and ANSYS for advanced structural modeling and analysis tasks.

Civil Coordination & Site Design
Experience coordinating site layout, grading, drainage intent, and utility interfaces to ensure seamless integration between building and site design during entitlement and permitting.

Project history

Structural Engineer

Architectural, Inc.
Performed structural design and analysis for residential, commercial, and mixed-use buildings using wood, steel, and reinforced concrete systems. Prepared complete structural drawings, calculations, and specifications ensuring compliance with local, state, and international building codes (IBC, ASCE 7, ACI, AISC, NDS). Collaborated closely with architects, MEP engineers, and contractors to integrate structural solutions into architectural design intent. Conducted load calculations including gravity, lateral (wind/seismic), snow, and live loads; optimized systems to balance safety, cost, and constructability. Reviewed shop drawings, RFIs, submittals, and performed site inspections. Provided structural assessments for remodels, additions, and tenant improvements; produced retrofit solutions for existing buildings. Utilized engineering software such as AutoCAD, Revit, RISA, ETABS, SAP2000. Coordinated with city plan reviewers and responded to comments to obtain permit approval.
