I am an Architect with 8+ years of experience across residential, commercial, and industrial projects.

I've led design development and concept-to-construction delivery for 25+ residential, commercial, and industrial projects at Yasir Mehmood Associates, including CBD master planning, Coca-Cola plant projects, corporate offices, schools, mosques, and villas.

I coordinate clients, consultants, contractors, and authorities while preparing working drawings, managing design teams, conducting site visits, and ensuring compliance with building codes. I use AutoCAD, SketchUp, Lumion, and Revit to take projects from architectural concepts through delivery.
