Internship and On-Site Experience
Internship and On-Site Experience During my internship and site exposures, I gained valuable hands-on experience in both design development and the construction process. I assisted in preparing architectural drawings, site documentation, and client presentations while observing real-world applications of building codes and construction methods. This exposure enhanced my understanding of project coordination, teamwork, and the practical aspects of turning designs into built environments.
