Electrical Engineer & Construction Project Manager bridging traditional engineering with modern technology.

Bridging Construction & Technology.

The construction industry is changing. I'm an electrical engineer and project manager who works at the edge of that change — bringing automation, AI, and modern software into an industry built on handshakes and hard hats.

My foundation is traditional: P.Eng. and P.E. licenses, PMP certification, and years of hands-on experience engineering, estimating, and managing commercial projects (retail, offices, and malls), institutional builds (schools, hospitals, and government buildings), and industrial facilities (plants, factories, and oil & gas).

But I also build tools. Engineering calculators, project dashboards, and automation systems designed to make construction professionals faster and more accurate. The free tools on this site are just the beginning.

Where I've made an impact.

Electrical Estimating & Value Engineering

Electrical Engineering Firm

  • Electrical estimating and proposal writing for commercial retail, institutional, and industrial projects
  • Manage scope delineation between owner, general contractor, and electrical contractor across multi-million dollar projects
  • Design & Analysis: Load lists, cable sizing, UPS sizing, lighting calculations, relay coordination studies, electrical system modeling (CYME)
  • Drawings & Layouts: Single line diagrams, cable routing, demolition layouts, earthing layouts, equipment layouts, installation details
  • Specifications & Schedules: Equipment sizing & specs (switchgear, transformers, generators, RMUs), datasheets, cable schedules, I/O schedules
  • Studies & Reports: Protection & metering schematics, relay coordination study reports, substation control system specifications

Construction Project Manager

General Contractor

  • Project Setup & Procurement: Lead initial project setup (Procore, Autodesk integration), establish communication plans between subtrades, owners, and GC. Collect estimating packages, review quotes, negotiate with subcontractors, define scopes on drawings, and lead scope review meetings through to award.
  • Schedule & Contract Administration: Collaborate with superintendents and project teams to develop schedules aligned with contract requirements. Manage trade contracts, revisions, change orders, and owner change management using CCDC standards.
  • Financial Oversight: Cash flow forecasting, fee reconciliation, progress claims, and major equipment/material delivery tracking.
  • Project Delivery: Chair project team meetings, manage commissioning plans & schedules, oversee phasing plans, and lead close-out through trade contractor substantial & total performance.
  • Direct Oversight & Execution: Chair internal and trade contractor meetings, manage RFIs, technical submittals, and change coordination with owners/consultants. Oversee M&E and F&E coordination drawings, look-ahead schedules, pull planning, QA inspections, testing & inspection, pre-occupancy submittals, mock-ups, finish plans & samples, OFW oversight, and support superintendents on site. Lead full close-out including as-builts, O&M manuals, extended warranties, training records, and extra stock.
  • Team & Site Supervision: Oversee and ensure accuracy of document management, daily site reports, manpower tracking, concrete logs, delivery tracking, timekeeping, trade billings, payables, progress photos, short-duration schedules, orientations, site logistics & security, drone deployment, incident investigations, infection control plans & meetings, JOSH committee meetings, M&E and F&E equipment lists (owner & trade contractor provided), trade contractor safety submissions, labour rates, and above-ceiling & in-wall inspections.

Engineer & Developer

Independent Practice

  • Built a Finance & Operations project management dashboard using React/Next.js and Tailwind CSS
  • Developed engineering calculator tools for cable sizing, solar, and wind energy
  • Created automation bots, multi-chain wallet trackers, and payment system integrations
