As an architectural designer, I have gained experience working on projects in the schematic design, design development, permit documentation, and construction documentation phase. Working in the hospitality and healthcare sectors of the industry, I can bring a technical rigor to future projects primarily in Revit. I have helped to create worthwhile architectural projects in which I completed some management tasks. I would like to take the next step in my career and gain a significant amount of experience at an architectural firm. I also want to increase my software knowledge at a firm, which would help me remain relevant in the field. I would want to be an employee that adds something positive to the firm culture. If you would to see sample architectural projects I worked on in the past, please email me, and I will send you a pdf that can meet requested data limits.
