Owner, Virtual Architec LLC
Duluth, Minnesota Area
I have a very active passion for learning new things and relating these to past experience to look for new solutions to long term challenges. I have been thrilled to be able to use my building experience in applying it to designing in 3D and converting these to virtual models that can be toured online. This has helped brigde the age old gap of trying to convey design intent easily, quickly and accurately to clients and sub-contractors.
Helping Architects move from old technology to new, with innovative ways of training and integration.
