About Jorge Zepeda

As an estimator, I conduct precise quantity takeoffs for diverse scopes, including earthwork, pavement demo, and proposed pavement. Proficient in AGTEK, Bluebeam, HCSS, B2W, Microsoft Office, I leverage my knowledge and cutting-edge tools to deliver accurate estimates.I earned my Bachelor’s in Civil Engineering from California State University, Fullerton with a 3.74 GPA. My commitment to excellence was showcased as the Chief Estimator for CSUF\'s Heavy Civil Team at the ASC Heavy Civil Competition in Reno, Nevada. Leading a team of six, I orchestrated the crafting of a $38.5 million dollar bid for Runway 16R-24L Reconstruction Reno-Tahoe International Airport. The project encompassed demolition, earthwork, underground, electrical, asphalt paving, and concrete scopes.My team took first place at the Pacific Southwest Symposium (PSWC) for the Geowall competition hosted at UC San Diego. As a 4 person team, we created a model MSE wall according the the specifications as stated in the rules. The objective was to engineer a design that minimizes the need for reinforcement (by weight), ensuring structural integrity to bear loads exceeding 500lbs of sand, coupled with additional applied forces and moments.Beyond my professional pursuits, I always make time to weight train at least 5 days out of the week, as well as surf, and rock climb regularly because fitness is a passion of mine.
