About

Junior civil engineer specialising in structures. Trained on construction sites and then in a technical inspection office, I check drawings and design calculations, and I design formwork and reinforcement drawings for reinforced concrete. As a Team BÊS volunteer, I also help renovate public schools in Senegal.
