About 

For the past few years, I’ve been involved in major residential and office projects in Sweden, both new constructions as well as renovations. Some of these projects I have held a lead role in. I have skills in project management and budgeting, as well as client relations. I am authorized to live and work in USA.

My IT skills include extensive training and experience in 3D modeling in ArchiCad, Artlantis, Sketch Up and the Adobe Suite. I do know Microsoft Office.

I am a creative but yet efficient professional, and having studied and worked in Denmark and Sweden, I have both an interest as well as a body of knowledge regarding “green architecture” and energy-saving solutions.
