What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that will allow me to continue to create construction documents and visuals for builders or design professionals

At Paradigm, I produced residential construction documents and 3D BIM models in Autodesk Revit, contributing to more than 700 residential design and drafting projects. As lead drafter for LGI Homes, I led the conversion of legacy 2D plan sets into Revit-based BIM models and updated construction documentation.

I developed drafting standards, workflow documentation, and quality control processes, and trained production team members across Nicaragua and Egypt. Before Paradigm, I worked in buying and visual merchandising at the University of Pittsburgh, Lord & Taylor, and The Sports Zone Elite.
