I am a Civil Engineer with over 7 years of combined experience in construction and project management, having worked as a contractor in the Philippines, and insurance estimating, specializing in complex property-loss claims. My career began with 5 years as an apprentice Site Engineer and Project Manager, where I built a strong technical foundation in structural systems, project execution, and quality control. This hands-on background made me highly detail-oriented and technically precise in assessing building damages and restoration requirements.
For the past 2 years, I have focused on Xactimate and Symbility estimating, where I have written and collaborated on hundreds of insurance claims across 30+ adjusters and 20+ major insurance carriers around USA and Canada. My work spans both insurance carrier and policyholder appraisals, as well as partnerships with contractors, restoration companies, public adjusters, and mitigation specialists. Alongside estimating, I also handle administrative tasks and negotiation correspondence, ensuring seamless communication between parties and supporting the resolution of claims.
I have extensive experience preparing estimates for a wide range of losses, including total losses, large commercial claims, and catastrophic fire, storm, water, and flood events. My skillset covers the full claim lifecycle: from roof sketches using EagleView/Google Earth, interior and structural scope writing, mitigation line-items, and code compliance research, to high-level appraisal negotiations.
In addition to my estimating expertise, I am proficient in both engineering and business software, including AutoCAD, SketchUp, STAAD, Tekla Structures, Planswift, Xactimate, Mobile Claims, Microsoft 365, and Google Workspace. I also leverage AI tools such as ChatGPT and Gemini to streamline workflows, optimize reporting, and deliver innovative, efficient solutions.
My professional edge lies in combining technical engineering knowledge with advanced insurance estimating expertise—allowing me to produce accurate, defensible, and high-value estimates with fast turnaround times, without compromising quality. Above all, I prioritize trust and always repay it with dedication and hard work, ensuring reliability and excellence in all that I do
