May 20th 2026. USA, Australia and New Zealand Architect Hi there! I'm David, a passionate architect who graduated with a Master's in Architecture from Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, in 2016. Over the past 6 years, I've honed my skills across the USA, Australia ,New Zealand, working with firms of various sizes. My expertise lies in both industrial and residential architecture, managing projects from the initial concept through to detailed design and construction. I pride myself on being an intuitive team player who loves tackling new challenges. For me, architecture is more than just a job; it's about finding the right balance in life. This perspective has driven me to live and work in vulnerable communities, most recently in Latin America, leading to collaborations with New Zealand firms on high-end residential and commercial projects nationally, as well as international projects aimed at supporting communities in Asia and the Pacific. I'm always eager to face new challenges and situations that demand creativity and an open mind. My team and I are well-equipped to handle complex projects, and we look forward to the unique challenges each one brings. It's important to note that my current Upwork status may not fully reflect the breadth and quality of my work. I often connect with clients directly on Upwork and prefer to build private contracts and relationships. Looking forward to potentially working together! Best, David
