I have been drafting with AutoCAD for over 17-18 years now and have worked in many different engineering fields, an MEP firm working primarily on HVAC, but I also did plenty of work with electrical, plumbing and sprinkler. I also have Fire Alarm and Tilt-up construction experience. I have also done work for architects/designers, an IT/Telecommunications consultant, and a small HVAC company. In addition to this I also do private AutoCAD tutoring. I have plenty of experience working on multiple projects at once. I love doing this kind of work and am always looking for new work.
