About

The Engineer
Behind the Work

I am a Licensed Civil Engineer with over five years of hands-on experience in construction cost estimation, project engineering, technical auditing, and construction documentation. My work spans residential, commercial fit-out, and property-related projects across the Philippines.

From supervising fit-out builds inside SM malls to conducting government-level technical audits at Pag-IBIG Fund, I bring both field precision and analytical rigor to every engagement. I work independently and integrate seamlessly into client project teams.
