I am a competent Civil Engineer with over 7 years of experience in the construction industry. I have been an integral part of and also successfully managed diverse civil projects, encompassing the construction of commercial and residential buildings, roads, and intricate water distribution networks. My attention to detail and compliance with industry regulations have consistently ensured the efficient execution of multi-million-dollar projects such as the EU-sponsored water distribution network in Bayelsa, Nigeria.
My work ethic is rooted in integrity, professionalism, and a commitment to delivering exceptional quality while ensuring cost-effectiveness. I can manage stakeholder relationships and work independently as well as within teams.

Site Engineer at Curve Linear (Jan. 2022 to Present) - I currently collaborate with architects and site workers to interpret blueprints, coordinate project activities, and resolve construction issues promptly. In this role, I supervised the construction of a $1.2M estate which was completed within the estimated 5 months despite external setbacks such as extreme weather conditions. I also carry out detailed site inspections, detect defects in existing buildings, and complete renovations with strict adherence to state standards.
Assistant Project Manager at Pelfaco Limited (Jul. 2020 - Nov. 2021) - In this role, I managed a $970K dredging project, optimising cost-efficiency without compromising on quality. I coordinated the sand filling of a water-logged area to create a new land mass, thus addressing 30% of the land shortage issue in the locality.
Project Manager at Priko Nigeria Limited ( Jan. 2018 - Apr. 2020) - As the project manager, I carried out routine audits to ascertain the functionalities of the company's owned and hired equipment. I oversaw the execution of 16 civil projects across 16 communities - water reticulation along major roads, and construction of generator houses, fences, and foundation bases for steel water tanks. I supervised the rehabilitation of the Odi water distribution system to restore water supply to the community. Being very involved in community projects, I made sure to maintain effective communication through frequent visits and interactions with community representatives.
Outside of work, I enjoy playing video games (Apex Legends, FIFA), exercising, and web design. As a quick learner, I enjoy learning new skills. In 2022, I taught myself programming languages (HTML, CSS, Java, React). I am currently learning French.
