Hire the Best Architects in Seattle, WA

Licensed Architect with 14+ years of experience in commercial development, specializing in master planning, feasibility studies, and site planning. I bring a strong understanding of zoning and re-zoning, pre-submittals, code compliance, site constraints, and real-world construction considerations to help developers, brokers, landowners, and project teams evaluate opportunities early and reduce risk before major investments are made. Expertise & Specializations • Master & Urban Planning • Feasibility Studies and Zoning Research • Site Planning and Site Analysis • Development Yield Studies and Test Fits • Entitlement Strategy Support (Pre-Submittals & Agency Coordination) My strongest skill is understanding the big picture, translating complex regulations, site constraints, and development goals into clear options, test-fit scenarios, and concise summaries that support confident decision-making. I am a highly collaborative partner known for strong organization, clear communication, and delivering well-structured information that helps teams move from concept to next steps efficiently. Typical Deliverables • Zoning and code summary with key constraints and opportunities • Conceptual site plans and test-fit layouts • Development yield and massing studies • Feasibility summaries outlining viable options and trade-offs • Pre-submittal packets

I build the systems operators actually use: Lovable dashboards, internal tools, sales enablement apps, and commerce ops, with enough business judgment that the product matches how the work really runs. I'm a top 10% Lovable builder (AI Tools, Website Development, Business Application Development, E-commerce, Marketing Collateral, Sales Enablement) and invited into Lovable's Experts program. I've shipped 100+ Lovable projects in a Pro workspace, plus live products under COPYCRAWLER LLC and client builds at michaelcozart.dev. What that looks like in practice: • Ops and analytics dashboards: KPIs, forecasts, inventory/buy plans, repeat-customer views (e.g. Shopify brand analytics wired to real sales data) • Business apps: portals, pipeline tools, enablement apps, not brochure sites • Commerce systems: Shopify/Amazon storefronts and marketplace workflows that convert and stay maintainable • AI that respects the process: typed workflows and automations that replace manual work without silent, unverified submits I've run marketing/sales ops, business development into Fortune 500s, and nonprofit program launches, so I ask the operator questions before I build: what's the decision, who's the user, what breaks if the data's wrong.

When I say delivered by Monday - I actually mean it! Bachelor's degree in architectural design, and 20 years in architectural visualization, working with architects, developers, and private clients, creating concept designs, architectural renderings, and 3D models of all types of architectural projects. I turn concept ideas into fully developed visual presentations. When the deadline is tight, I know how to prioritize and optimize the pipeline, without sacrificing quality or the details that matter. IMPORTANT: If you need a quick and easy render, city permits, or a simple floor plan, I'm probably not your guy. I work best on complex, high-budget projects: luxury residential, mixed-use developments, investor decks, pre-sale campaigns. frameviz dot com SketchUp + Enscape / Twinmotion /D5 3DMax + Vray or Corona, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Premiere for post-production.

I work with founders and business owners to turn their ideas into real, profitable applications and get them into the app or play store. Whether you are starting from nothing, an MVP or if you’ve built something with Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, Replit, Base44, v0, Claude, ChatGPT, or another AI coding tool, I can help you clean it up, secure it, fix the broken pieces, and get it deployed properly. For mobile apps, I can get your app production-ready and submitted to the App Store or Google Play. I’ve spent 15+ years building software for everyone from small businesses to venture-backed startups. I’ve led engineering at two YC-backed companies and have built dozens of applications for founders who later raised funding, became profitable, or used the product to run their business. My strength is working directly with founders. I’m not just here to write code from a ticket. I help you figure out what’s actually needed, what’s risky, what’s overbuilt, and what needs to happen to turn your prototype into something reliable. I can help with: • Stabilizing vibe-coded web and mobile apps • Fixing bugs, broken flows, and messy codebases • Securing Supabase, Firebase, APIs, auth, and payments • Deploying apps to Vercel, Render, Heroku, Supabase, etc. • Preparing and submitting mobile apps to the App Store / Google Play • Cleaning up AI-generated code • Adding missing production features • Integrating Stripe, auth, email, storage, analytics, and admin tools • Improving performance and reliability • Building MVPs from scratch when needed • Coaching founders who want to keep vibe coding but need technical guidance Tools I regularly work with professionally include JavaScript, TypeScript, Next.js, React, React Native, Expo, Python, Flask, PostgreSQL, Supabase, Firebase, MongoDB, Ruby on Rails, Heroku, Render, Vercel, n8n, OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, LangChain, and Go.
