Drawn by Someone Who Understands How Buildings Are Actually Built
If you’re planning an ADU, addition, or remodel, the quality of your construction documents will determine whether your project moves smoothly—or gets stuck in plan check, inspections, or costly revisions.
I bring over 30 years of hands-on construction experience as a former Licensed General Contractor and Union-trained Carpenter, along with 12+ years producing permit-ready residential plans throughout Northern California. I also pursue ongoing Civil Engineering studies, allowing me to combine real-world construction judgment with technical, code-aware design.
What This Means for You
• Plans that can actually be built
• Fewer plan check comments and inspection issues
• Avoiding unnecessary revisions and construction costs
I work collaboratively with structural engineers and actively review proposed solutions to ensure they are appropriate for the project scope. In many cases, this has resulted in more efficient designs that met code while saving clients thousands in construction costs.

SECOND OPINION / RESCUE WORK
Projects stalled? Red-lined? Unsure your plans will pass review? I’m often brought in to review, correct, and help move projects forward.

If you’re early in planning, a feasibility conversation can save time and money. If you’re already delayed, a second set of experienced eyes can make the difference.
