I specialize in ADU designs, duplex layouts, remodeling plans, structural coordination, MEP integration, and construction drawings for permit approval and project execution. I have worked on projects ranging from residential homes and additions to commercial spaces and mixed use developments, delivering accurate, buildable, and professionally organized drawing packages.
My strengths include attention to detail, fast turnaround time, clear communication, problem solving, and the ability to transform concepts, sketches, and PDFs into high quality architectural plans and 3D visualizations. I am committed to providing reliable design support that helps clients move smoothly from concept to construction.
