What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and professional growth in architecture.

I am a qualified Architectural Technologist with over 3 years of experience in architectural project coordination, site supervision, and architectural drafting. My practical experience at RISE International and the Educational Facility Unit has equipped me to thrive in project-based roles requiring precision in architectural design, planning, and documentation.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led architectural teams, achieving 100% on-schedule CAD designs and 95% accurate reporting on high-impact projects like the Kick4Life Stadium. My ability to build effective teams and document site progress has contributed to over 90% on-time project completion, earning stakeholder trust and recognition for excellence in technical reporting and on-site coordination.

I am now eager to apply my record of success toward advancing your organization’s vision, with a commitment to professional values, efficiency, and innovation in architecture and project delivery.
