About me
As a BIM Wayfinding professional, I specialize in bridging the gap between spatial design and user experience. With a background in architecture and a passion for intuitive navigation, I leverage Building Information Modeling (BIM) to create comprehensive wayfinding solutions that align seamlessly with project goals and user needs.
My approach combines design thinking and technical expertise: I translate complex spatial data into clear, user-centric visual narratives. By integrating BIM workflows, I ensure that wayfinding strategies are informed, adaptable, and accurately reflect the built environment throughout all project phases.
I believe that well-designed wayfinding enhances not just movement but the overall experience of a space. Whether it's optimizing signage placement, developing dynamic digital navigation, or collaborating with cross-disciplinary teams, I’m dedicated to delivering solutions that are both functional and inspiring.
