I am a dynamic and ambitious architect, recent graduate student with 5+ years experience in various projects and constructions on parking garages, highways, industrial and commercial buildings, urban design, heritage and conservation, and defense-listed sites. My skill duties consist of producing shop tickets, building materials, project manager on design build contracts, follow up on updates through email with the architect and more. Since graduating from an accredited university at PrairieView A&M University with a Master’s degree in Architecture, I have worked in several well-known engineering/ architecture and design companies.
I possess impeccable technical and computer skills with advanced knowledge of Auto CAD, Sketch-UP, Illustrator, In-Design, Podium, Tekla, PhotoShop, all of the CS5 software, Revit, Microsoft Office suite, Adobe and other graphics communication programs. In previous jobs I have often been called upon to conduct a site analysis and research building material. I also have an excellent working knowledge of BIM.
My attention to details and excellent problem-solving skills ensure that every project I work on is done accurately and to the highest possible standard. I am comfortable working as part of a team but also have the ability to take an authoritative role when the situation arises. My verbal communication skills and positive attitude make me an effective communicator with all clients I work with.
My enclosed resume clearly demonstrates my interest in architecture, structure, design in the way in which my skills and experiences are compatible with this role. Long term is what I seek in a company and the ability to multitask myself in different roles as well as working on several projects at a time is something that I am great at.
I’m look forward to the opportunity of discussing my application with you further and how I can significantly contribute to the ongoing success with your company.
.
Yours sincerely

Architecture Summer Internship
Architecture Department
While serving as a college student for many years I have gained technical skills and experience in sustainable architectural design that many others haven’t. I contributed in these areas; green building, sustainable design and architecture while designing it is important to consider the surrounding areas as well as the living conditions in which you’re incorporating green design. Not only did we design but we participated in the building/construction process as well.
