My Name is Rafael Magallanes Jr. and I grew up in the Northside of Denver, Colorado. I am the first generation of my family to attend college and my career choice is to become an Architect. To this day I have gained Knowledge in the creation and design of construction documents in Revit and AutoCAD. I have had the great opportunity to work in the homebuilding industry with CalAtlantic Homes as a Product Development Associate. Under my position I am tasked with the redlining of Architectural plans for all communities. My ability to understand the importance of having Construction Documents that are concise and accurate gives me the drive to push for a quick revision turnaround. I exemplify my ability to resolve problems by keeping a personal connection to all field and trade partners in their concerns to deliver the quality homes our customers expect. I began as an intern with the CalAtlantic team and have risen to the tasks of keeping and monitoring a Tracking Document that the trades use in their responsibilities and provides the information they need to meet deadlines and address real time concerns for our homes.
