Transportation Engineer

Transportation Engineer — Apex Infrastructure Group

Denver, CO | January 2023 – Present

• Directed the design and layout of 4 major corridor intersection upgrades in the Denver metro area, utilizing AutoCAD Civil 3D to create vertical alignments and cross-sections that improved traffic throughput by 19%.
• Supervised traffic impact analyses for 12 large-scale commercial development projects, leading to the optimization of lane configurations that reduced average peak-hour vehicle queues by 28% across all sites.
• Managed roadway drainage design and hydrologic modeling for a 6-mile highway expansion project, reducing projected runoff volumes by 15% through the implementation of bioswales and detention basin networks.
• Coordinated civil design tasks with 3 external public agency partners and utility groups, saving $95,000 in conflict resolution costs by identifying and resolving structural design clashes prior to construction.

Associate Transportation Engineer — Rocky Mountain Civil Partners

Boulder, CO | June 2020 – December 2022

• Performed micro-simulation modeling using Synchro and Vistro for 15 municipal corridor signal projects, improving vehicle progression rates by 18% and reducing regional traffic congestion during peak hours.
• Prepared traffic control plans and geometric design files for 8 public roadway rehabilitation projects, achieving 100% compliance with federal MUTCD standards and state department of transportation codes.
• Assisted in writing 9 comprehensive traffic impact studies and environmental mitigation reports, which accelerated municipal project approvals by 35% and shortened the pre-construction phase by 3 weeks.
• Conducted field inventories and speed studies across 45 corridor intersections, utilizing data loggers to correct database discrepancies for 110 signalized locations and improving traffic model accuracy.
