What I bring
Architecture experience joined with systems thinking and BIM execution.
Guiding principle
Complexity into clarity
Digital delivery is not a support function. It is a strategic discipline grounded in clarity.
The real value in the shift toward cloud ecosystems, automation, and AI-enabled workflows lies not just in using tools, but in designing the systems behind them — the standards, data structures, governance models, and delivery logic that make projects reliable.
Recommendations
Professional references across design, BIM, and digital practice.
Working with Gottfried at Walt Disney Imagineering was a great professional experience. He was a resource to the team — his years of experience, professionalism, honesty, and willingness to help solve issues, while also taking a leadership role when needed as a BIM manager, was greatly appreciated.
