I am a civil designer with over 21 years of extensive experience in the construction industry. I have extensive project experience in industrial and municipal water and wastewater systems, stormwater management, and civil site design. I can take your project idea and make it a reality, from site selection, survey, design, permitting, and see it through construction. If you’re halfway there and just need help getting your project drafted or past the permitting agency I am skilled in getting results. My wife runs a flower farm from our home in central Arkansas and I’m on Upwork so I can support our family and support growing her dream. If you're looking for a seasoned professional who is happy to help on the little projects or the big ones I appreciate the chance to be your designer.
