Drafting:

I have nearly 25 years of extensive experience in CAD drafting specializing in Architecture using the latest AutoCAD software.  I have licenses for AutoCAD, MColor, Rhino, PhotoShop, Illustrator, Painter, Corel Draw, Accurender, Acrobat and numerous other CAD and graphics related applications.  During my years of experience I have worked my way up from a student through drafter and into designer.  I have done college level teaching for many years, done private tutoring and held positions in various firms which included Job Captain, Project Manager and in most every firm I have been their CAD Manager.  Local firms that I have done work for include John Picchi AIA, Tierney Figueiredo AIA, Joe Jack CAD Services, Pac Bell Mobile Services, Daniel MacDonald, Hill Architects and numerous others.  I have worked on TI, commercial, residential, public facilities, senior residential facilities, as well as historic renovations including such high profile projects as the DeMeo Teen Center in Santa Rosa.  Most firms that I have done work with I was able to increase the productivity of the employees through additional training, CAD support, block and detail libraries with quick access menus and also custom routines for AutoCAD to speed up their repetative tasks.  In addition I have also done numerous low cost housing projects for Burbank Housing and RCHDC and worked on the redesign of the Oakmont restaurant and pro shop.  Recently one of the houses that I did the complete design through construction drawing sets for was voted the best new home in Healdsburg, CA.  Currently many of my on going projects include high end custom residential homes and housing for the elderly both in terms of congregate care facilities as well as cotage units.  Below are several examples of my work.
