Essizewa Essowedeou AGATE

As a dedicated and experienced civil engineer, I bring a wealth of expertise in estimation, drafting, and research within the construction industry. With a focus on detail-oriented analysis and a commitment to delivering quality outcomes, I have consistently excelled in a range of roles that demand precision, technical prowess, and effective collaboration.

With a multifaceted background in civil engineering, I have accumulated valuable professional experience throughout my career. As a Part-time Estimator at WE LEAD TECH in Lomé, Togo, since September 2020, I have honed my skills in analyzing architectural plans, preparing comprehensive estimates, and ensuring precise control of works for seamless project coordination. During my tenure as a Draftsman at BB Brewery from February 2021 to March 2022, I excelled in drafting facade plans, supervising project implementations, and providing accurate quantity estimations. My role as a Quantity Surveyor at EIFAGE Togo from March 2020 to February 2021 allowed me to monitor concrete production and employ meticulous measurement techniques, contributing to project accuracy. Currently pursuing a second-year Master's degree in Civil Engineering with a research focus on soil improvement and sustainable construction practices at PAUSTI, Nairobi, Kenya, I am dedicated to advancing eco-friendly construction solutions. My research, supported by a Pan African Union Commission scholarship, involves the innovative use of waste bamboo charcoal and quarry dust for stabilizing expansive soil in road subgrade construction. I aspire to publish my findings by January 2024. Additionally, I hold a Diploma in Project Management from CAMT, Toronto, Canada, and a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Lomé, Togo. I have also undertaken training in entrepreneurship, leadership, and English language proficiency. Proficient in AutoCAD, ArchiCAD, and Microsoft Office, I possess strong communication, time management, teamwork, and research skills. Fluent in both French and English, I am well-equipped to excel in diverse contexts. My commitment to precision, technical proficiency, and innovative thinking positions me as a valuable asset for projects that demand accuracy and innovation.

I completed 16 years of education in Togo and obtained a bachelor's degree in civil engineering. The degree is typically earned after completing the first cycle at the University in Togo, and my specialization is in the field of civil engineering. This level of education demonstrates a strong foundation in mathematics, science, and engineering principles, which can be applied to various fields and industries such as the construction field.
