As an Architectural Technologist and Interior Designer at CHASE Architecture Inc., I have acquired comprehensive experience across various sectors. My contributions to interior design projects for renowned hotel brands, such as Delta Hotels by Marriott and Park Inn by Radisson, have broadened my expertise in hospitality design. I have also developed proficiency with the Ontario Building Code through my involvement in permit packages and the design of healthcare spaces, particularly for Spectrum Health Care Clinics. My enthusiasm for design has led me to work on interior design for educational institutions, including ILAC Canada's campuses in downtown Toronto. Furthermore, I have explored diverse design methodologies while participating in master planning and design feasibility for a significant townhouse development in Milton, Ontario. These endeavors have refined my technical skills and creativity, reinforcing my dedication to delivering innovative and functional design solutions. A part from working on Design, FF&E , Construction/Tender Drawings, Permit Drawings, Shop drawing reviews & Preparing General/Final Review Reports for sites, I was fortunate to have worked on Submittals for Hospitality Brand Approvals based on Brand Standards and Local regulations enhancing my learning curve to another interesting horizon.
