Teaching
My teaching philosophy revolves around lightbulb moments where students find themselves enlightened with new information. I provide ample examples to not just simplify the concept but also to foster lifelong learning. I also use various active learning strategies to bolster in-class learning and augment it with a hands-on approach which fits in with Cal Poly Pomona's 'learn by doing' approach. As an instructor, I have taught courses in construction engineering and management to both undergraduate and graduate students. The list of courses I taught can be found under the 'Courses Taught' section of my webpage.
Research
My research interests and experience primarily lie in using human-computer interactions to improve construction workflow processes, ultimately leading to organizational resilience and sustainable projects. My research experiences broadly relate to enhancing communication among project teams using artificial intelligence and project risk management. I aim to bring advancements in the application of digital construction techniques for achieving organizational resilience and sustainability through automation for the advancement of the construction industry.
