About

Architect with a construction PM background and a bit of an entrepreneurial streak. I have worked on both sides of the project, producing architectural drawings and construction documents on institutional and residential builds in Toronto, and managing construction delivery on fit-outs, renovations and luxury residential projects before that. I also spent several years running my own furniture manufacturing business, which added a layer of operational and commercial awareness to everything I do. Tools: Revit · BIM 360 · AutoCAD · Procore · Bluebeam · SketchUp · MS Project · Excel
