I love the built environment - drawing plans, refining them, thinking about the use of spaces, the needs of those who will use them and creating previews of them with high quality renders. Having lived in various countries I have a literal world of experience working with clients to bring their creative briefs and vision to life. With qualifications in drafting, visualisation and design - and practical experience working in building companies - I have the technical skills, design vision and industry knowledge to deliver real value in your preconstruction journey and avoid costly regrets when things don’t look or function like you had hoped. I am truly invested in helping you achieve your goals and passionately believe that when faced with making the monumental decisions and investment involved in building, everyone should have the option of 3D imagery to supplement the 2D documentation required by council and trades.
