About 

I am registered at the Order of Architects and Engineers of Lebanon since 2011. I am a hardworking, enthusiastic individual with significant experience in the architecture and construction sector. I have 2 years of experience in Lebanon working on high-end residential projects as well as commercial buildings. In the UK I worked on extensions and prepared packages of drawings in support of building control applications and building surveys. I can manage my time efficiently and I ensure that any task allocated to me is completed to the best of my ability and on time, whether as part of a team, or individually.
