Can someone help me punctuate this sentence correctly?

My expertise includes : Transportation-related projects; Drainage-related design for roadways, highways, and airport facilities; Utility-related projects such as routing studies, water lines, sanitary sewer collectors, program management, and water distribution surge analysis; Drainage-related projects such as FEMA map revisions, open channel designs, channel impact mitigation designs, and detention pond designs.

My expertise includes: transportation projects (drainage design for roadways, highways, and airport facilities); utility projects (routing studies, waterlines, sanitary sewer collectors); program management; and water distribution surge analysis (drainage projects, such as FEMA map revisions, open channel design, channel impact mitigation design, and detention pond design).

I think- not sure which of those are really related…. Don’t use the word ‘related’ so much.

Of course, the parentheses are personal preference, it does break up the sentence some and prevent it from being so run-on-ish.

I hope you don’t mind I changed it a little…I used to re-write executive resumes for a top recruiter I worked for.

My expertise includes transportation related projects, such as drainage-related design for roadways, highways and airport facilities including FEMA map revisions, open channel design, channel impact mitigation design and detention pond design as well as utility related projects such as routing studies, water lines, sanitary sewer collectors, program management and water distribution surge analysis.

My expertise includes transportation related projects – drainage related design for roadways, highways, and airport facilities; utility related projects – routing studies, water lines, sanitary sewer collectors, program management, and water distribution surge analysis; and drainage related projects – FEMA map revisions, open channel design, channel impact mitigation design, and detention pond design.

I think if you made it something like the following it will be easier for the reader:

My expertise includes the following:

-Transportation related projects

-drainage related design for roadways and highways.

– airport facilities.

-Utility related projects

-routing studies.

-water lines.

-sanitory sewage collectors.

-program management.

-water distributuion surge analysis.

-Drainage related projects

-FEMA map revisions.

-open channel design.

-channel impact mitigation design

-detention pond design.

The above layout makes it more interesting to read, easier to read and organises the plan. It is visually more interesting.

I see three separate sentences: one finishing before the second hyphen; one finishing before “drainage related…” Add in some subjects and verbs, like: ‘I have performed …’ or ‘I lead a team of engineers and technicians performing …’ and you should be able to break up this monster run-on sentence.

If that guy spent 13 years teaching English, I begin to see why young people have trouble writing clearly.
