About Dana
SketchUp and site analysis became my primary tools when I first saw how structure shapes our daily lives. You might wonder how a background in Civil Engineering translates into beautiful spaces, but the precision is identical. Over the past 7 years, I have worked with 357 students to refine their grasp of building materials and architectural history. Whether you are a beginner or a university applicant, you will learn to manage AutoCAD and floor planning with total confidence.
Sustainable design requires a firm grip on both math and creative form. Many career switchers and A-level design students find my technical background to be a massive asset. Model making is a tactile, rewarding process that bridges the gap between digital sketches and physical reality. Please feel free to reach out if you would like to discuss your portfolio or current projects.

Instruction should focus on solving the architectural problem rather than just software features. You will work through a weekly design challenge with critique to sharpen your eye for spatial relationships. My 7 years of experience allows me to provide feedback that mimics real studio environments. Beginners often feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of design variables, yet I help you simplify these choices into actionable steps.
University applicants frequently find that this method builds a stronger, more cohesive body of work. Students transitioning from other fields appreciate how I connect abstract design concepts to concrete technical skills. A-level design students will notice that their ability to visualize floor planning improves drastically after only a few sessions. If you were to start your first building model today, what specific aspect would you find most challenging?
