@gavynsilva
Architectural drafter and 2D/3D designer delivering coordinated project drawings, Revit detail work, and landscape planning.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Architectural Drafter and 2D/3D design professional who builds coordinated plan sets and details using AutoCAD and Autodesk Revit. In my recent role as Project Director at RAFI Architecture, I focused on project coordination, plan drawings in AutoCAD, and completing entire projects using Autodesk Revit and Adobe CC.
I also bring hands-on drafting experience from Westar Architects and Steelhead Productions, where I supported project startup and office management with AutoCAD and created technical drawings alongside 3D furniture design in Autodesk 3ds Max. Alongside that, I’ve worked as a Landscape Designer on pool and hardscape deliverables—preparing material estimates, MEP plans and details for pool connections, proposal writing in MS Office, and drafting in AutoCAD—plus an internship at SLAL Architects involving specification sheets, project setup in Autodesk AutoCAD, and 3D modeling in Rhino. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s of Architecture at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and I’m committed to clear drawings, strong specification thinking, and production-ready design work.
