Professional Structural Engineer registered in the state of Massachusetts and Delaware. Looking to expand my work to assess more structural projects. I am looking to work on structural design and modeling of buildings. Also I am certified project management professional with experience to deal with management of construction projects from initiating to closing.

I've been designing single family and multifamily custom homes for 25 years throughout the USA, Canada, The Caribbean and Europe. I am experienced with all phases of design and construction management including pre-design, planning/historic approvals, permitting, bidding, construction documents, construction administration and project management. I provide photo-realistic, 3D rendered views, flyovers and flythroughs as part of my design process. They are also great for marketing and planning approvals. I work closely with my clients throughout the design process. I find my clients know what they want and are looking for some inspirational possibilities. I present the possibilities in schematic design and with the client and team develop the schematic design for planning approvals, permitting and construction. I find the design process to be rewarding. Attention to detail, communication and teamwork are important tools I use every day. I am always available for a phone call or meeting. Thank you! Please feel free to contact me. I look forward to discussing your project. Best Regards! Lauran ONeal 6179552337
