I design and coordinate structural solutions for multifamily, mixed-use, and complex construction projects.
United StatesI've provided structural design consultation and project management for private developers and builders, supporting additions, gut rehabs, and small multifamily new buildings while using technology to accelerate design and deliver value engineering.
My work spans structural modeling, analysis, BIM coordination, construction management, scheduling, and subcontractor oversight. At Hoffman Construction, I managed federated-model coordination and Navisworks clashes for Intel's FAB 38 chip factory.
