Part of a small management team on a new city development, I was responsible for the design, construction drawings, budgeting and scheduling of several prototype single and multi-family houses, a passive agriculture storage facility, multiple temporary bamboo workshops, and a 40-bed health center. I simultaneously coordinated construction of several buildings, organizing materials and labor, and overseeing quality control.
