Summary

I am an Architectural Technologist and BIM Coordinator with a background in architectural design, technical documentation, and 3D visualization. I am open to working in any or all of these specialties simultaneously.

I currently work as a BIM Coordinator for a leading Autodesk partner, supporting clients on international projects—primarily in Dubai—across Architecture, Landscape, and Interior Design. My role involves:

  • Overseeing project collaboration in accordance with the BIM Execution Plan.
  • Configuring modeling and federation strategies.
  • Managing and aligning 3D model coordinates to meet client and project requirements.
  • Expanding the Revit Family library as needed.
  • Ensuring model health and compliance with BEP standards.

Additionally, outside of regular hours and on weekends, I continue to assist Kapperer Architects with 3D modeling, technical drawings, architectural visualization (3D rendering), Revit template development, and family creation for residential projects.
