PROJECT & CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT · AI & VDC

Delivering complex projects through construction management, field execution, project controls, and digital innovation.

Stanford MS graduate with two years of construction experience, including work supporting a $222 million aviation project at SFO and hands-on experience across residential, warehouse, and infrastructure construction. I combine project and construction management experience with field execution, BIM, VDC, project controls, and AI-enabled workflows.

Selected Projects

Examples of how I have applied construction management, field coordination, BIM, sustainability, and emerging technology to real project challenges.

CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT · BIM · SUSTAINABILITY

Repurposing Waste Teak into a Custom Handrail

Identified an opportunity to reuse valuable teak wood during construction and converted the material into a custom handrail. I used Revit to develop the design, coordinated with project stakeholders and fabricators, and helped deliver a solution that reduced waste while generating substantial cost savings.

Challenge

Prevent high-value teak wood from being discarded while creating a functional architectural element that met design, constructability, quality, and budget requirements.

My Role: Site Manager

Managed design and execution coordination, including material reuse planning, Revit modeling, stakeholder communication, constructability review, fabrication coordination, and installation support.

STANFORD · GENERATIVE AI · 3D VISUALIZATION

Generative-AI Tool for Architectural Visualization

Built a generative-AI visualization workflow as a final project for a Stanford course taught by Professor Iro Armeni. The project explored how AI could enhance architectural and construction visualization while preserving important spatial and design information.

Problem

Traditional visualization workflows can require substantial modeling, rendering, and post-production time. The project explored whether generative AI could accelerate visual experimentation without losing the underlying design intent.

My Contribution

Designed and tested the workflow, evaluated model outputs, documented limitations, and helped convert the technical process into a usable project demonstration.

Tools

Python Generative-AI models Computer vision Video processing 3D visualization Prompt design

About Me

I am a project and construction management professional with an MS in Sustainable Design and Construction from Stanford University and approximately two years of industry experience. My background includes work on major aviation construction at SFO, hands-on project execution in India, and experience with BIM, VDC, project controls, procurement, field coordination, and stakeholder management.

My work sits at the intersection of construction management and technology. I am particularly interested in applying BIM, AI, parametric design, data, and better information workflows to make project delivery more coordinated, predictable, efficient, and sustainable.
