I am currently developing research in AI-driven structural engineering. My focus is on automation frameworks and machine learning surrogate models to predict structural behavior and performance more quickly and accurately. I have over 10 years of international experience in structural design and analysis, working across the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, and Canada. I specialize in reinforced concrete and steel systems using ETABS, SAP2000, and SAFE. My work covers structural analysis, gravity, wind, and seismic load design, foundation engineering, and coordination with other disciplines on building projects. I follow CSA, ACI, AISC, SBC, and NSCP standards to meet international design requirements. I am currently based in Toronto, Canada, and I am pursuing P.Eng licensure in Ontario and US Professional Engineer (PE) licensure. I am also working on integrating computational and AI-assisted methods into structural engineering workflows to make analysis and design processes simpler and more efficient.
