About

Built for civil work.
Learning beyond it.

I completed the Construction Engineering Technician diploma at Algonquin College in August 2025, developing a practical foundation across civil drafting, field surveying, estimating, construction materials, and quality documentation. Alongside my civil career, I am pursuing an online BBA in Data Science & Artificial Intelligence at Jain University to strengthen my understanding of business decisions, analytics, and technology.

Professional perspective

“Strong civil work begins with accurate information, clear records, and the discipline to get every detail right.”
