Operated CADD station and blueprint machines, tracked warehouse inventories, and maintained construction plan archives.
Key Achievements:

* Developed and delivered highly accurate designs that remained in compliance with Florida Residential Building Codes.

Architectural Draftsperson |more>>
As architectural drafter for Ed Hillstrom (1921-1999), my duties included transposing hand sketch, existing and measured drawings to manual inked drawings. I read and understood architectural drawings through redline. I also developed construction details using common building materials on construction documents, or to create ASI (Architect Supplemental Instruction) sketches. In addition, I created color and finish boards to present ideas to clients using basic color skills. Finally, I did management construction documents, logs, submittals, addendum, change orders, and RFI. I researched products, and I assisted the Project Manager through different project phases.
My tenure with Ed Hillstrom introduced me to the design aesthetics of his mentor Frank Lloyd Wright.
