What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to lead innovative projects and foster team collaboration in a dynamic environment.

I am a seasoned architect with over 5 years of proven experience in the construction industry. My journey has taken me through various roles, including Lead Architect at Ngonyo Construction and Project Manager at Pacific Reality Investment. I have successfully managed projects from inception to completion, ensuring timely delivery and high-quality standards.

My expertise lies in design software such as ArchiCAD and Lumion, which I have utilized to create innovative and functional designs. I am also skilled in project management, overseeing construction sites, and mediating between clients and contractors. My proactive approach and ability to work under pressure have consistently led to successful project outcomes and satisfied clients.
