Summary
As a Construction Materials Technician at Tolunay-Wong Engineers, Inc., I have gained hands-on experience in sampling and testing a wide variety of construction materials, including cementitious grout, epoxy grout, concrete, and soil. I’ve performed field and laboratory tests on concrete to evaluate strength, slump, air content, and temperature. I’m skilled at working in fast-paced construction environments and am known for my attention to detail and strict adherence to safety and quality protocols.
I’ve developed proficiency in inspecting and maintaining testing equipment and have worked on projects at various chemical plants, including ExxonMobil, Dow, LyondellBasell, as well as non-chemical facilities such as Sesco Cement. I’ve also collaborated with industrial contractors like Gallant Industrial, Targa Industrial, WRC Energy Services, and Gulf Coast Pipeline Services.
I am now seeking to transition into a new field where my skills set, technical knowledge, and problem-solving skills can be effectively utilized and further developed.
