I am experienced in various types of projects which include single family residential, multi-family and mixed-use buildings, and commercial interiors. Responsibilities include building code and zoning analysis, schematic design, coordination of consultants, materials selection, development of details, construction documents, organization of project team, analysis of bids, monitoring of budgets, direct coordination with contractors, and field visits.
With over 15 years of architectural experience, I am seeking an opportunity to work as a lead project architect in a progressive architectural environment. I wish to expand on my cumulative experience and embark on the new challenges that each project presents itself with.
