What I'm looking for

I seek architect roles where I can lead documentation and visualization, improve client approvals, manage site coordination, and drive timely, quality project delivery in collaborative teams.

I am a licensed architect with progressive experience across project documentation, site coordination, and client-facing design review from internship to senior design leadership.

I have produced precise construction documents using AutoCAD and Revit, prepared BOQs and specifications, and managed procurement to streamline project delivery and compliance.

I advanced client engagement through high-quality visualizations using V-Ray, Lumion, Enscape, D5, and SketchUp, reducing design revisions and improving approvals.

I lead site inspections, compile construction progress reports, and organize coordination meetings to ensure projects meet design intent, schedule, and quality standards.
