Jessica Sta Ana
@jessicastaana
Architect and project/construction manager delivering sustainable, client-ready designs and builds.
What I'm looking for
I’m a licensed architect with over 10 years of experience spanning architectural design, construction coordination, and project leadership. I’m driven by a belief that great architecture is both an art and a service, and I continuously merge aesthetic value with functional, efficient project execution.
In my current role as an Associate Architect/Design Asst., I oversee the sequential work and execution of a large-scale mixed-use residential condominium development with seven high-rise towers—managing design coordination, construction supervision, documentation, quality compliance, and cost control. I also support complex engagements from pre-design through construction completion, lead value engineering initiatives, streamline permit documentation and design coordination to reduce review cycles, and deliver compelling 3D visuals and presentations that secure client approvals.
