I officially started my business in 1961, and closed in 1997, and remain a semi retired Architectural Building Designer. I prefer to do the preliminary designing of floor plans and elevations for clients, but can do the whole project when needed. I spent several years as a structural steel detailer for local fabricators prior to starting my own business as well as manufactured part design (plastics, castings, machined parts). I have acted as inspector and quality control for major builders in my area.
