About 

I am a dynamic and ambitious designer with experience in various architectural projects,
in residential, conservation historical buildings, and commercial edifices as well. Also, I
have developed skills as a graphic designer in previous professional environment and
throughout my academic career. 

 

I possess impeccable technical computer skills with advanced knowledge in AutoCAD,
Microsoft Office, Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, Sketchup, and other graphic
software. In previous jobs, I have had the opportunity to meet directly with clients and
discuss their design needs and present them various options via sketch computer
models or sketch hand-drawings. This allowed me to learn and adapt to unprecedented
situations.

 

My attention to detail ensures every project I work on is properly and accurately done to
the highest possible standard. I am comfortable working as part of a team, but have the
ability to solely undertake a work if the situation arises.
