Civil Engineer & AEC Software Developer

Python Development & APIs BIM/VDC Automation Data & Web Tools

Professional Summary

A Civil Engineer and self-taught Software Developer with master's-level studies in Civil Engineering (VDC/BIM focus). I build Python/pyRevit automation, Autodesk Construction Cloud data pipelines with PowerBI dashboards, and web applications used by multidisciplinary teams. Skilled at translating engineering constraints and field feedback into backend logic and APIs, with familiarity in AI/LLM integrations and Home Assistant automations. Hands-on with Fusion 360, Shapr3D, and FDM 3D printing, plus woodworking instruction experience that grounds me in timber fabrication—ready to help Spacial ship robust, AI-enabled tools that connect structural and MEP workflows to reliable software.
