1. Project Manager

   Erritt Construction

   mars 2025 to nov. 2025

   Toronto, ON

   Microtunnelling contractor specializing in microtunnelling and open-well caisson construction. • Project management of large diameter open-well caissons and permanent chambers in support of microtunnelling operations, project scopes ranging from 1-12 million dollars. • Implemented value engineering strategies to improve efficiency of contracts, resulting in cost and time savings for the client. • Served as the primary point of contact for clients, managing client relationships, coordinating strategic planning efforts, and ensuring the timely and accurate delivery of scope, budgets, and schedules. • Developed project reports of manpower, machinery and strategic improvement to discuss in weekly progress meetings with senior management to align with company goals. • Negotiated and coordinated with subcontractors to expedite the schedule when met with delays due to unforeseen circumstances on site. • Carried out the design and facilitated the manufacturing of custom temporary structures and safety equipment required for the construction of the cofferdam and shaft. • Closely monitored changes and transitions in ground conditions, ensuring they are reflected in bore logs and GBR. • Directly responsible for cost tracking, purchase of materials and equipment, tracked supplier costs and performing inspections for quality compliance. • Took leadership of a project during internal personnel changes, ensuring seamless coordination between crews, all the information necessary to complete work being provided. • Mentored junior staff on construction processes and safety protocols. • Carried out internal presentations on methods of construction and geotechnical principals unfamiliar to junior employees including sheetpiling, cofferdams and piping in caissons.

2. Shift Engineer

   Strabag

   sept. 2024 to mars 2025

   Toronto, ON

   Tunnelling contractor specializing in large infrastructure projects from energy to transportation. • Independently oversee production in an engineering capacity, ensuring that the construction of the tunnel and maintenance of the TBM is carried out in accordance with design parameters, relaying necessary information to the construction manager. • Oversaw tooling maintenance on the 12-meter diameter EPB TBM as part of the $2bn Scarborough Subway Extension. • Monitoring geotechnical and hydrological conditions and contrasting them with theoretical data during mining operations. • Organize documentation to coordinate the handoff of production to subsequent Shift Engineers. • Carry out QA/QC inspections of structural concrete segment installation, recording and monitoring any potential issues that may require repairs.

3. Site Manager

   Tydon Contracting

   oct. 2022 to juill. 2024

   Toronto, ON

   Trenchless contractor specializing in small diameter jack and bore tunnel methods • Carried out several temporary works designs, including linerplate, steel casing, and soldier pile and lagging shafts. Performing checks for jacking forces and earthloading and impact loading. • Provide shaft construction alternatives to the client where site constraints and proximity to utilities limited construction methods. Considering construction method and geometry alternatives. • Submitted methodology for hand-mining operations reviewed and approved on first draft by the city of Toronto and the TTC. • Developed effective solutions to small but time consuming problems, specifically in the production phase, saving hours on pipe changes, expediting the schedule. • Produced procedural documents and risk management plans for complex tie-in operations, coordinating with Toronto Water and Ashbridges Bay Treatment Plant. • Diligently review IFC and as-built drawings prior to mobilization of a site to ensure no discrepancies were missed. • While installing liner plate through weathered shale, encountered a shoring structure not indicated on as-builts. Developed a system for removing and abandoning the shoring system to prevent any significant delays. • Provided clients with multiple solutions when a change order was issued redesigning the system, affecting the constructability of the system. Ultimately implementing a solution to allow for the swift completion of the remainder of the project. • Developed a job specific confined space entry protocol, due to the unknown stability of the previously installed casing. Ensuring workers safety around the casing prior to verifying its stability.

4. Site Engineer

   Ward and Burke

   mars 2020 to oct. 2022

   Toronto

   Multinational microtunnelling contractor with operations in Ireland, Canada and the US. • Took an 8-month leave of absence in order to complete my degree in Civil Engineering • Constructing deep caissons of depths upwards of 40 meters which created significant and unique geological issues which were solved at site level. • Ensured health and safety compliance on-site, monitoring and ensuring that confined space protocols are being followed. • Overcame logistic challenges of working on confined job sites requiring precise coordination of material and equipment. • During sinking caisson operations, monitored ground conditions, noting transitions and adjusting excavation methods accordingly to meet safety, quality, and schedule objectives. • Efficiently adapted to design changes on site, reconfiguring construction methods when necessary to suit design changes. • Assisted PM in scheduling and staging system shutdowns for critical tie-ins at pumping stations, liaising with regional authorities and construction crews. • Implemented a system for tracking the torque sequence of large diameter bolted connections. Improving the productivity of the process by 50%. • While completing time sensitive mechanical installations during the COVID-19 pandemic, simple and cost effective solutions were found when modifications to mechanical elements were required.
