• I-15 Managed Lanes, San Diego, Highway and Drainage Design on-site at CalTrans.

Technical Lead for MicroStation v8 data management architecture and all InRoads configuration activities.  

I left this contract upon initial release of the Production Configuration to work locally in San Diego, for CH2MHill and CalTrans.

Technical Lead for MicroStation v8 data management architecture.  

Defined architecture and implemented Intranet and innovated Web-based Training.

• leading the certification efforts and coordinated fixes with Intergraph.

Helped implement a county-wide GIS sewer model using Intergraph's MGE product group. 

Helped integrate MGE with InSewer so that both products ran against the same dataset (San Diego was the first environment to try this; it involved a substantial amount of code-rewriting by Intergraph). 

• Led the certification and support efforts for InFlow and InSewer.  Helped develop mixed (gravity/pressurized) HGL/EGL methodology and the InSewer pump modeling.

Certified the initial release of InSpan.

• InRoads Engineer for this complex urban highway interchange. InRoads surface model included multiple complex templates utilizing transition control points for semi-independent ditches, superelevation with rollover locks, etc. 

• used sophisticated InRoads tools (e.g., Generate Longitudinal Features) to model and report bridge beam clearances.

• Assistant Project Engineer providing site engineering and permitting services for a variety of improvements and additions to school facilities. Typical projects included drainage renovations, additional parking and/or bus loops, and building additions.
