As a CAD Drafter, I worked directly under the signing architects and owners of the company to create the Construction Drawings for the residential projects assigned to me. I would receive these projects after initial design was completed and approved by the clients, and would start from code research and due diligence, and end with permit submittal. Due to the nature of the small company, I had a very close knit and interpersonal relationship with those in the office and on my team. Not only did I create complete architectural drawings under supervision, but I also worked under the structural engineers for foundation and roof plans, as well as other structural needs necessary to built multi-story buildings. I created the Electrical drawings in coordination with the design intent, as well as additional areas such as plumbing risers, HVAC location, and permit submittal requirements. All work was performed under the direction and teachings of licensed individuals.*Work examples and references of my skills from this employment are available per request***CONTRACT MADE THROUGH THE SERVICES OF @Actalent (formerly known as Aerotek)**

Chicago, Il

I was responsible for communicating and enforcing policies to the undergraduate residents of university housing, as well as reporting policy infractions. I received introductory training to detect signs of emotional trauma or concerns, and in de-escalating conflicts and problem solving. With extended uses of collaborative work I co-organized/executed a series of events and programs meant to create a connection to Chicago and the university, as well as educating and benefiting the residents with the information learned. I worked in a specialized community where I was tasked with developing and supervising events designed to broaden student involvement and resources within the College of Architecture, Design, & Arts. These areas were referred to LLCs, and in them I collaborated lectures and Q&A sessions with professors, acted as a mentor to the new students, and inspired creativity and appreciation for their majors. Through my three years I worked with a direct staff team ranging from 14 to 25, and had responsibility over a group of residents ranging from 30 to 65. Other tasks asked of me included working hours at the Help Desk at the main office, as well as manning the Security post to the entrance of the residence halls. I took part as an evaluator in the interview process for the new possible hires each year, and acted as a tour guide during Open Houses. During On-Call shifts I was the line of contact for emergencies and concerns during the night shift, scheduled from 5pm to 8am that morning. On weekends the shift was scheduled for a full 24 hours. During On-Call shifts I was prohibited from exiting the residence halls. The situations would vary from mild to extreme, for example when a student would need a lockout performed at 3am, to an alteration between residents that lead to the police or emergency responders to be contacted.
