Architectural Millwork Draftsman

Houston, Texas
$50 per hour
33 jobs
$20K+ total earnings

I've known millwork and been around for almost all my life. I started working professionally around 2013 in a local shop where I've learned a lot more hands-on techniques and master many skills. I began drafting submittal drawings to architects around 2014 using Microvellum integrated AutoCAD. While being mentored by a Peruvian Architect, I also mastered many drafting skills that later on became my forte. Since then, drafting has become a passion for me. I worked in many other millwork shops since then and obtained many more skills. Drawings provided: - Commercial (Retail, Hospitality, Institutional) - Residential (Estate Level, High-Rise) Skills: - Architectural Millwork Design, Engineering, Estimating, and Project Management. - Providing Services to Millwork/Casework Firms nationwide - Assist Architects, Interior Designers, and Home Builders with design/drafting needs - Consult homeowners on custom kitchen/bath design With all this experience, I plan on delivering excellent and quality services. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile; I'll look forward to working with you.
