About
I’m Tobi, a Master’s student in Architecture complementing my academic journey with real-world experience in design documentation and architectural drafting.
My path into collaboration on projects began during my undergraduate years starting with small freelance drafting tasks that gradually grew into assisting on full architectural and structural documentation for U.S. based contracting firms, project managers, and licensed professionals. It was a process of steady learning: studying building codes, observing construction workflows, watching field documentation videos, and refining my drafting approach through countless iterations and feedback loops, I had learned to adapt across diverse project standards and expectations.
My approach bridges design thinking with the precision required in technical documentation, guided by clarity and a respect for both local practice and global standards, while remaining grounded in the shared discipline and professional ethics that connect designers everywhere.
