I am experienced Civil Engineer with a Bachelor of Science (BSCE) from Missouri University of Science and Technology, and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) from University of Oklahoma. I have over twenty-five years of professional experience in the Civil Engineering disciplines like structural, transportation, construction and geotechnical engineering. I am also a certified "Project Management Professional" by PMI. I have successfully managed several Construction and Geotechnical related projects throughout my career. I have been teaching Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam - Civil, The Principles and Practice of Engineering (PE) exam – Civil, and Project Management Professional (PMP) exam preparation group classes and 1-to-1 tutoring sessions since 2021.

Hundreds of my students have achieved scores to pass Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam - Civil, The Principles and Practice of Engineering (PE) exam – Civil, and Project Management Professional (PMP) exam by focusing on tailored solutions based on their specific needs. I also teach Mathematics and Statistics, Ethics and Professional Practice, Engineering Economics, Statics, Dynamics, Mechanics of Materials, Materials, Fluid Mechanics, Surveying, Water Resources and Environmental Engineering, Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Construction Engineering.

I help students with clear and in-depth explanations of Civil Engineering and Project Management related topics by using realistic problems. I explain the methods and solutions by using required sketches and calculations with digital copies of the problems. I also supply related study materials if needed.

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

Drawing on my PhD in Civil Engineering and PE license, I offer an elite level of expertise in the high-level trigonometry and coordinate geometry that distinguish the ACT Math section from other standardized tests. My PMP certification enables me to provide students with a rigorous, project-management approach to the exam’s fast-paced structure, ensuring they can execute complex calculations with both speed and professional-grade accuracy. By leveraging my deep technical background, I deconstruct the ACT’s "Integrating Essential Skills" and "Higher Number and Quantity" categories, transforming abstract mathematical theory into logical, engineering-based problem-solving workflows. Ultimately, my unique combination of academic rigor and field experience allows me to mentor students through the exam’s most challenging modelling tasks, providing a sophisticated conceptual framework that ensures mastery over the test’s most technical content.
Civil Engineering

Civil Engineering

Leveraging my PhD in Civil Engineering alongside an active Professional Engineering license, I provide a rare synergy of high-level theoretical mastery and current, real-world industry application. I have developed specialized expertise in preparing candidates for NCEES exams, focusing on navigating the technical challenges and strict requirements of both the FE Civil and PE Civil tests since 2021. My instructional methodology focuses on deconstructing dense engineering principles—ranging from structural mechanics to transportation systems—into digestible, exam-focused strategies that prioritize both conceptual clarity and calculation speed. By combining my tutoring experience with my background as a licensed practitioner, I offer targeted mentorship that bridges the gap between academic study and the professional proficiencies required for licensure success.
GRE

GRE

My PhD in Civil Engineering provides a profound mastery of advanced mathematics and analytical reasoning, ensuring that the Quantitative Reasoning section is approached with a level of rigor far exceeding standard exam requirements. Leveraging my Professional Engineer (PE) status, I possess the technical precision and problem-solving intuition necessary to deconstruct complex word problems and geometric proofs with professional-grade accuracy. Furthermore, my PMP certification translates into a superior ability to manage the exam’s strict time constraints through strategic planning, risk mitigation, and systematic execution. This unique combination of high-level academic research and industry-certified management allows me to synthesize dense, technical information quickly for mastering the GRE exam.
Project Management

Project Management

My professional foundation rests on the dual pillars of a PhD in Civil Engineering and a long-standing PMP certification, allowing me to translate advanced engineering concepts into rigorous, standardized project management frameworks. I have cultivated a specialized expertise in the pedagogical delivery of PMP and CAPM curricula, successfully translating the complexities of the PMBOK Guide into actionable insights that empower students to master certification requirements. My background enables me to apply high-level engineering methodologies to the strategic oversight of complex, multi-stakeholder projects, ensuring that technical precision is consistently matched by operational efficiency and risk mitigation. As a seasoned educator and active practitioner, I bridge the gap between theoretical engineering concepts and real-world project execution, maintaining a deep commitment to the evolving standards of the project management profession.
SAT Math

SAT Math

With a PhD in Civil Engineering and a Professional Engineering (PE) license, I possess an advanced mastery of the geometric principles and algebraic modeling that form the core of the SAT Math section. My PMP certification further ensures a disciplined, strategic approach to time management and problem-solving, allowing me to translate complex multi-step word problems into efficient, repeatable systems for students. I offer a unique perspective by grounding abstract SAT topics—such as trigonometry and advanced functions—in real-world structural applications, which provides students with a deeper conceptual intuition beyond simple rote memorization. Furthermore, my extensive academic and professional background allows me to deconstruct the exam’s "Passport to Advanced Math" and "Heart of Algebra" sections with a level of rigor and technical precision that goes far beyond standard test-prep methodologies.
