Developed, redlined, and produced 2D/3D structural, architectural, and mechanical drawings/detailed designs for HVAC systems/ ductwork/equipment using expertise in Revit, AutoCAD/AutoCAD MEP Toolbox, BIMTrack, BIM360, and Autodesk Navisworks Manage while complying with SMACNA/shop standards. ▪️ Served as an instrumental member of numerous high-profile projects. ✔️ Exported and imported 3D duct systems/models (e.g., prepared and Revit drawings for use in AutoCAD MEP). ✔️ Created building information models (BIM) for all trades/disciplines based on project scopes/needs. ✔️ Developed drawings and detailed designs (HVAC ductwork, systems, and equipment) in line with engineering specifications. ✔️ Reviewed submittals and contract drawings to define optimal materials/processes. ✔️ Managed requests for information (RFI), bills of materials, and records (e.g., as-built drawings). ▪️ Soared productivity across multiple departments by piloting a major initiative to create customized databases using SMACNA and shop standards for seamless data retrieval/use in estimating, drawing, and duct fabrication. Highlights: ✔️ QuoteSoft estimating software databases that reduced software takeoff completion times by 50% while allowing direct transfer of computer-generated ductwork takeoffs from QuoteSoft to Trimble FabShop (nesting software) for cut/fabrication. ✔️ Microsoft SQL-based East Coast CAD/CAM, AutoCAD, and Revit databases that created new drawing templates, HVAC system designations, and routing preferences. The solution reduced drawing times by an average of 50%✔️ Trimble FabShop databases that reduced inputting times by 75% by automating the process of populating holes for reinforcements at critical locations. ▪️ Managed multiple databases, including Trimble East Coast for AutoCAD, Trimble for FabShop, and QuoteSoft.▪️ Hired, managed, and trained a team of four drafters/detailers while providing direction throughout the coordination and drawing processes.

Directed drafting and design activities for a metal fabrication shop while maximizing the use of resources for the organization, ensuring designs mirrored project scopes, quality control standards, and industry best practices, and managing information technology (IT) operations. ▪️ Recognized for designing numerous process improvements that enhanced efficiency, accuracy, and quality levels in both drafting and fabricating processes, including ✔️ Standardized shop and production processes. ✔️ Robust employee job descriptions for full team accountability and transparency on performance metrics. ✔️ Team reorganization and shifts of responsibility scopes based on the strengths, professional passions, and interests of each individual staff member. ✔️ Databases and spreadsheets to track production, automate data entry processes, and identify/rectify issues and bottlenecks in drafting and fabrication activities. ▪️ Built and led an internationally dispersed team of 35 fabrication shop employees, draftsman/detailers, and estimators. Created schedules, delegated tasks, responsibilities, and projects, defined/tracked key performance indicators (KPI), and encouraged achievement. ▪️ Ensured ongoing and uninterrupted duct fabrication, drafting, and detailing activities by accurately forecasting/ordering resources (materials, supplies, and equipment), researching optimal equipment for emerging needs (duct fabrication, drafting, estimating, and technology), and gaining approvals for large purchases. ▪️ Tapped into robust technical and drafting expertise to assist fabrication and drafting teams with software, equipment, BIM (building informant modeling) issues, duct specification questions, and detailed drawings. ▪️ Controlled risks of safety accidents and incidents by promoting OSHA compliance, requiring the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and leading safety meetings/training/education.

Developed drawings and detailed designs from project scopes, customer sketches, and blueprints, fabricated dampers, cut/welded sections, seams, and connectors, and assembled/installed ductwork (stainless, black iron, galvanized, and aluminum) while serving in a variety of roles with increased responsibility scopes. Previous roles included Welder and Fabricator. ▪️ Recognized for superior performance, professional integrity, dedication, high-quality work, and mechanical, technical, and business expertise with a series of promotions throughout the tenure. ▪️ Mitigated inaccuracies, lost materials, and rework by verifying all information data prior to cutting.
