The goal isn’t just to win jobs — it’s to win profitable jobs (and I’m continually improving my process to help make that happen more consistently).
If you’re:
* a contractor who needs more reliable estimates to win the right work,
* an estimating firm needing accurate, on-time takeoffs,
* a construction company juggling suppliers, clients, and subcontractors, or
* a builder trying to keep programmes, progress tracking, and variations under control…
…I’d love to help — especially in a stable, long-term role where I can grow with a director/builder. I’m not chasing quick, short-term gigs. I’m looking to become part of a team, learn your systems properly, and steadily improve my output over time. I’m very aware I still have gaps to close, and I genuinely welcome feedback because that’s how I level up.
I’m a licensed Civil Engineer with over 6+ years’ experience across estimating, drafting, and construction management, supporting US, Australian, and UK-based clients. I also hold a Certificate IV in Building Project Support (Estimator) in Australia to stay aligned with industry standards and compliance expectations.

* Quantity takeoff – Architectural, Civil, and Structural trades
* Cost estimates – practical budgeting support (A-to-Z)
* Scope of works and methodology review (clarifying inclusions/exclusions)
* Bill of quantities (BoQ) preparation
* RFQ / quote request pack preparation
* Supplier and subcontractor coordination support
* Tender document preparation and quote comparison summaries
* Construction drawings and drafting assistance
* Construction / project support (documentation and coordination)
* Progress reports, valuations and schedule of conditions

UK: UK measurement / documentation exposure (SMM, RICS), Party Wall and JCT familiarity
I’m detail-focused and adaptable, but I’m also realistic — I’m always working on improving speed, tightening assumptions, and reducing omissions. If you’re after someone who’s consistent, coachable, and keen to grow into a long-term support role, I’d really like to be considered.
Keen to connect and see how I can support your projects — and grow with your team long-term.
