I interned at Divane Bros. Elec. Co in the summer of 2013. The first 2 and a half weeks consisted me of working out of their satellite office on the south side of Chicago working directly with the renovation of the South Red Line stations, working as a personal CAD assistant for the Project Manager. I visited the stations, creating drawings for the contractors in the field. This required me to go in depth at the stations, having to understand the technical field of electrical work and it's relation to the construction process as well as it's relationship to the architectural plans.

Diavne saw my potential, and brought me to their main office to work directly in their CAD office. There, I worked directly with a bid that Divane had won for the new Green Line station located at Cermak. My work varied from 3D modeling, writing up Requests for Informations, updating schedules as well as creating electrical line drawings. This varied work on the Cermak station allowed me to fully appreciate and understand the station as a whole, having to interpret Architectural, Structural, Electrical and Plumbing plans.

My responsibilities as a lab technician are to simultaneously watch over three different computer labs, refilling paper in the printers and plotters, replacing ink cartridges, as well as troubleshooting and fixing problems that arise when students attempt to print. Additionally, I provide help to students with programs such as Auto CADD, Revit, Google Sketchup, Photoshop and other software programs, as well as supervising and assisting in the Laser Cutting Lab along with the school’s 3D printers.

Collaborated with principal architect to assist in the production of construction documents for residential and commercial projects. Additionally, I collaborated in preparing illustrations and drawings for clients, as well as took on site measurements for projects.
