Industry Experience

Real Estate & Construction, Travel & Hospitality, Professional Services
    Divine Mercy College Foundation Inc. – College of Criminology & Law

    A five-storey institutional academic building designed to support the expansion of the college’s Criminology and Law programs. As Project Architect, I led the project from concept design through construction documentation, coordinating with consultants, regulatory agencies, and stakeholders to develop a functional, code-compliant, and buildable educational facility. The project includes specialized learning spaces such as criminology laboratories, a moot court, a law library, permanent crime scene simulation rooms, chemistry laboratories, and administrative facilities. The design emphasizes controlled visibility, security, durability, and climate-responsive architecture through the use of vertical fins, deep overhangs, and a contemporary academic identity.
