Experience Hanson Professional Services Inc. Maryland Heights, MO
Geotechnical Engineer – Power and Industry Market Jan 2015 – June 2016
 Prepared cost estimates and scopes for large geotechnical projects, including use of a barge for overwater
drilling
 Reviewed and prepared geotechnical reports for transmission line and electrical substation/switching station
projects; reports involved calculating LPILE and MFAD parameters for deep foundations
 Performed many calculations/analyses and prepared Structure Geotechnical Reports for IDOT per the
IDOT Geotechnical Manual and IDOT spreadsheets/design guides
 Reviewed and prepared interim and final geotechnical reports for several segments of Ameren’s Illinois
Rivers Transmission Lines (ILR) project, which includes approximately 2,300 power poles
 Used the programs DRIVEN and GRLWEAP to evaluate drivability of caissons (large diameter driven pipe
pile foundations) and determine if caissons or piers would be used for power pole foundations
 Logged borings, classified soils and rocks, and collected samples as a field geologist to supervise drilling on
the ILR project
 Observed pile driving and logged borings for transmission towers at large river crossings
 Monitored tieback (ground anchor) installation for drilled piers

 Determined drilling and laboratory testing program for geotechnical projects
 Performed calculations and prepared over 330 geotechnical reports for commercial, industrial,
transportation, institutional, residential, and other types of projects
 Used software and developed spreadsheets to perform analyses, including global slope stability, flexible and
rigid pavement designs, laterally loaded pile deflections, settlement, and bearing pressures
 Determined seismic design values for construction of buildings (IBC) and bridges (AASHTO/IDOT)
 Developed and maintained a record of every project completed for reference purposes and to follow up for
materials testing services
 Made marketing calls to clients and received calls with requests for proposals
 Managed day-to-day activities of the Wentzville regional office, including answering the phone, purchasing
office supplies, calling for service repairs, cleaning, and coordinating IT work in the office

 Used software and developed spreadsheets to perform analyses, including global slope stability, laterally
loaded pile deflections, settlement, and bearing pressures
 Designed pavements by hand according to the 1993 AASHTO Guide Procedure for the Design of
Pavement Structures
 Managed construction of projects by reviewing field technicians’ daily reports, responding to online
“deviations” for a specific client’s projects, and writing summary reports
