I am a 3D CAD designer and BIM/MEP Coordinator with more than 10 years of practical experience in the industry. I utilize software such as AutoCad MEP, Navisworks, Google SketchUp, and Lightwave 3D to create 3D designs as well as software like Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, Bluebeam, and InkScape for 2D designs. My specialty lies in designing and coordinating Electrical MEP systems for large scale high rise construction projects in the Chicago area. I am also proficient in 3D character and background design, 3D animation, and photo-realistic rendering for architectural and construction applications.

I employed John for a Sketchup project. Right from the start he was extremely professional and filled me with confidence. The project ran very smoothly with continuous updates from John. Any queries he had we resolved quickly which enabled the tasks to be completed effectively without wasting time. I would highly recommend John for your freelance project and I very much hope to work with him again in the future. Thank you John!
