About
I’m an architect based in Dubai with 5+ years of experience delivering high-end luxury villa projects, from early design development through authority submissions and construction-ready documentation. I specialize in Revit-based workflows and BIM integration, helping teams produce accurate drawings, coordinated details, and UAE-compliant packages.
I enjoy leading multidisciplinary coordination with MEP, structural, and interior stakeholders to resolve design issues early and keep authority review cycles efficient. Having supported 20+ villa projects across Dubai and achieved strong approval outcomes through proactive documentation and optimization, I focus on turning design intent into buildable, regulation-aligned results.
