What I'm looking for

I seek an entry to mid-level role in architectural design or BIM where I can apply drafting skills, learn from senior architects, contribute to projects, and grow technically within a collaborative team.

I am an architectural apprentice with practical experience assisting senior architects at Mulatya Africa Advisory Services, combining formal design studies and a Diploma in Business Information Technology to bridge creative design and project practicality. I have strong drafting skills in ArchiCAD, Revit, Enscape and SketchUp, and a proven ability to research materials, comply with building codes, and support site work.

I bring teamwork, leadership from student representation, and discipline from competitive football to every project, and I continuously pursue technical growth through courses such as Cisco IT Essentials and IELTS English proficiency to communicate design effectively.
