I’m an experienced VDC (Virtual Design & Construction) and 3D Visualization specialist with 17+ years delivering digital engineering solutions across large-scale infrastructure, aviation, commercial, and mixed-use projects. I build construction-ready 3D models from engineering drawings, support design coordination, and create construction sequencing animations, walkthroughs, and simulations to help teams align on delivery strategies. I’ve also led 3D visualization efforts for real-time simulation environments and mixed-reality use cases, translating technical documentation into interactive experiences for stakeholders and field teams. With strong hands-on expertise in tools like 3ds Max, V-Ray, Revit, AutoCAD, Pixyz Studio, and Reveal, I focus on accuracy, constructability, and quality-controlled digital workflows from model creation through updates during the design and construction lifecycle.
