About

Architectural Design
& Technical Drafting
Glass, Aluminum & Precision

Architectural designer and CAD engineer with over 5 years of specialized experience in glass facade systems, curtain wall construction, aluminum windows, and automatic door design.

My work bridges the gap between architectural vision and technical execution — from reading architectural plans through to production-ready shop drawings. Based in Flawil, St. Gallen and motivated to integrate within the Swiss construction industry.

Open to long-term collaboration and internship opportunities within the DACH region.
