I am a dedicated Design Drafter with expertise in Mechanical & Architectural Design. I worked as an AutoCad Drafter for 5 years following school in the granite industry. For the past 3.5 years, I have been in Mechanical Design using Solid Works & Solid Edge. I can produce 2D prints using DraftSight (AutoCad clone). I can also produce 3D models using the aforementioned programs. I can also produce photo-realistic renderings out of CAD models. I recently started my own Freelancing business called Scott Lester Drafting & Design. On the side, I teach Engineering Design at the same community college I graduated from.

With over 15 years of international experience in architecture, structural engineering, and advanced 3D BIM modeling, I bring a unique combination of technical expertise, creative design vision, and practical project delivery skills. Throughout my career, I have worked on diverse projects across residential, commercial, industrial, and mixed-use developments, gaining deep insight into global building practices and modern engineering standards. My professional background bridges both architectural design and structural solutions, allowing me to approach projects holistically. I focus on creating designs that are not only visually compelling but also structurally sound, cost-efficient, and sustainable. By integrating architecture with engineering principles, I ensure that every project balances aesthetics with performance and durability. One of my key strengths is proficiency in Building Information Modeling (BIM). I specialize in developing accurate and detailed 3D BIM models that integrate architecture, structure, and MEP systems. These models enhance collaboration between stakeholders, reduce design conflicts, and support efficient project management from concept to construction. Using platforms such as Revit, Navisworks, and other industry-standard tools, I provide precise models that improve visualization, quantity take-offs, scheduling, and overall decision-making. Over the years, I have led and collaborated with international teams, adapting to different building codes, cultural contexts, and client expectations. This global exposure has sharpened my ability to deliver designs that respond to diverse climates, local practices, and community needs, while maintaining high standards of accuracy and innovation. Key areas of expertise include: Architectural design for residential, commercial, and mixed-use developments. Structural analysis and design in steel, concrete, and timber systems. 3D BIM modeling for architecture, structure, and interdisciplinary coordination. Project management, scheduling, and cost estimation. Sustainable design approaches aligned with modern construction trends. I take pride in combining creativity with technical precision. Whether developing an elegant architectural concept, performing detailed structural calculations, or coordinating a full BIM model, my goal is to deliver solutions that add value and efficiency to every project. Clients and partners trust my ability to listen, adapt, and provide clear, actionable insights that keep projects moving forward smoothly. Looking ahead, I remain committed to advancing the use of BIM technology, promoting collaborative design methods, and contributing to projects that positively shape our built environment. My mission is to support clients, architects, and developers with reliable expertise that transforms ideas into reality—safely, sustainably, and beautifully.
