I am a highly motivated and creative person that works well in a team setting and independently. I enjoy creating and developing construction documentation, which includes plans, elevations, and full detail packages. I am very knowledgeable about millwork and interior architectural detailing. I have experience in managing small teams of assistant draftsmen and designers to complete projects. Other responsibilities included the management of Internet communication and the distribution/ organization of work between the local team (including the FF&E side), the oversea teams, the client and consultants. I also maintain project files, provide minor CAD technical support and trouble shooting services.
I mainly work on high end hospitality design projects, such as 4 & 5 star hotels, luxury properties and resorts.
I have experience working on Asian and Middle Eastern projects.
