About

I’m an ambitious BIM Manager and Modeler with extensive experience in the steel and construction industry, specialising in Tekla-based 3D structural modelling and BIM workflows. Over the years I’ve supported teams from early design and arrangement through to fabrication drawing packs, leveraging tools like Tekla Structures, AutoCAD, and IDEA StatiCA to ensure accurate, buildable output.

I’m also comfortable working across project teams—reviewing structural and architectural drawings, raising technical queries, and ensuring requirements are delivered to target timescales. I’ve applied BIM Level 2 principles to improve waste reduction, value creation, and productivity, and I continue to strengthen my capability with parametric design training using Dynamo/Grasshopper and Python, plus basic Tekla Open API coding.
