What I'm looking for

I seek project management roles in architecture/interiors where I can lead end-to-end delivery, mentor teams, ensure quality, and drive client-focused, cost-effective outcomes.

I am a Project Manager with 5+ years of experience in architectural design, interior planning, and construction supervision across residential, commercial, and institutional projects.

I have led full project lifecycles—from concept to handover—managing schedules, budgets, multidisciplinary teams, and regulatory compliance while ensuring quality and client satisfaction.

I founded and led YNR Constructions, delivering site development, civil detailing and interior integrations, and later scaled design teams and operations as Project Manager at Antz Design Studio.

I prioritize mentorship, cross-functional coordination, and strategic client relationships to drive repeat business, optimize delivery, and refine service offerings informed by market intelligence.
