I live in Costa Mesa, CA, on monthly rent.
I can move anywhere quickly and without relocation assistance.
To: Begovich + Haug
I am seeking full or part time work, employment or contract. I would
love to work for B+H. This is the type of architecture I enjoy the most. I still work at MVA Architects but
I’m seeking other work (please contact me before you contact them). I’ll
consider any opportunity for stable employment or contract work. In this
economy I’m not asking for much in salary. Please keep me in mind next time
you have an opening.
Thank you.
Mixed Use: I've worked on resorts with
residential components, see my hospitality resume, including
Venetian Cotai and Majestic sun. Earlier in my career I drafted the CDs for a
small condo building, see here in my online portfolio.
Residential Architecture: I worked 5 years for Prescott Architects doing
mostly houses from cheap catalog plans to high-end, including work for Classic
Cottages. Residential Master Planning: I did some of the master planning work for Shams
ar Riyadh (click here)
Project Management/ DD/ CD/ CA: I have managed many small TI projects from design
to CD to approval to CA, including this,
and I have lead on larger projects, see my hospitality
resume. I can show you samples of my Vegas work in person, however I
can not post it online due to nondisclosure restrictions.
City Permit
Procurement: In the
last 3 years, working for MVA or on my own, I've won approvals for TI projects
in: Long Beach, Cerritos, Santa Ana, Irvine, Pamona, Fontana, Orange, Carson
(L.A. County), Rancho Dominguez (also the county), Compton (love to Victor),
L.A. city (good times), San Diego (more good times), Costa Mesa, Rancho Santa
Margarita, & Pasadena.
Managing Consultants: I've routinely managed MEP, structural and civil
consultants. I managed a landscape consultant once. I worked for civil and
landscaping firms early in my career (Preble-Rish and Avant LTD, see my
resume).
Customer Service: I believe in customer service. I do everything I
can to help every customer I contact, and at MVA many clients request me when
they have work.
Thank you for
reading this cover letter.

my work it was about $450 million.

malls into designated spaces in the plan

sent us room plans from an unnamed (or in house) architect
· The other 3 design firms
simply sent floor plans to be inserted into overall plans
(serviced apartment tower, Billionaire Boys Club tower, the landscape
architect)
· I managed all CAD on the project, created most of the sheets, supervised the

space and participated in the trans-ocean, multi-lingual conference calls where
conflicts between the parties were resolved, and assembled the final DD set.

coordinated project standards with the other architects, supervised other
