I managed the development of 5 different communities (semi-custom), 1 Custom home, Accessory Structures, and the Resites of communities and Accessory Structures (homes ranged from $1 to $5 million). I brought these projects through the Construction Documentation, Permitting and Construction Evaluation phasesReviewed building codes, subdivision design guidelines, and local jurisdictional requirementsProcured and coordinated with consultants from RFPs through permitting and the CE phases. Resolved on-site issues with subcontractors, managed Procore documents, responded to RFIs and issued field Directives. Resolved Non-Compliance Reports from 3rd party inspectorsBecame the de-facto member of the team for advanced Revit applications, troubleshooting, file maintenance and implementing new procedures for file management of homes.

Las Vegas, Nevada, United States

Designed and 3D modeled custom and semi-custom homes through SD, DD and CD phases. Presented work and design iterations to team and client for review. Expanded use of Revit among the team to quickly develop floor plan iterations through design options

Las Vegas, Nevada

I worked developing construction documents for the construction of a large casino.

Ames, Ia

Responsibilities:I assist students in researching buildings and developing models that they present throughout the semester. The course looks at the development of architecture throughout the 1900s, examining architect's main works and the theories they fall under in the architectural practice.Skills:Built knowledge of significant architects in the 19th century, their architectural works, and the background behind their construction. I assigned grades for built models of buildings discussed in class. I helped guide their research and gave directions, guidelines and directions for proper representation through model form.

Lake Buena Vista, Florida

Managed project progress, presented to/ coordinated with clients, and pushed the development of projects across disciplines through coordination and delegation. Developed details, worked with others to create/ troubleshoot a Revit model as the company was transistioning to new software.

Ames, Iowa

Responsibilities:I assisted students with labs involving the application of energy modeling software and corresponding calculations to reduce building energy consumption. I also guided students with developing a thesis, drawings and a model that helped formulate a comprehensive analysis of a building's structural system. Other labs dealt with developing an assembly for their building facades.Skills:Mathematical knowledge of structural calculations and ability to analyze structural performance. Use of energy modeling software and applying to influence and develop design. The software was then paired with calculations to bring buildings to net zero. Natural day-lighting tactics Passive thermal gain/cooling tactics Building assembly and pairing materiality of buildings with goal/conceptual use.

Southampton, Ny

Responsibilities:The firm itself specializes in architectural and landscape lighting. During my occupation, I designed custom lighting fixtures for high-end clients. I participated in lighting 'night sets' in which the lighting fixtures were installed and refined to the optimal angle and vibrancy. I additionally laid out lighting design plans, made transformer load schedules, drew up site plans and made lighting presentation booklets for clients.Skills:The firm largely conducted their work through AutoCAD in which I expanded my knowledge in overlaying files and compiling data from other architectural firms in XRefs. Built a knowledge of lighting fixtures and tactics for lighting design of landscapes, and architectural interiors/exteriors.

Ames, Iowa

Responsibilities:Assisted students with labs involving energy analysis, building assembly and structural calculations. The course material also followed through with field tests of models and their assemblies including structural testing of surface-active structures and thermal gain of models. Skills:Ability to make energy and structural calculations Guiding students through formulas and model making of surface active models and passive heating models.

Holtsville, Ny

I assisted in wallpaper removal, stage construction, floor replacement, ceiling and roofing installation.
