Research profile
I research construction site processes and information flow to understand the existing challenges and development opportunities. I have studied in fields such as Digital transformation, digitalization, automation, information structure, breakdown structures, and quality control.
I focus on understanding how information flows at construction and how it could be done better to improve its performance and further develop the communication at the site, be it digitally or not.
Teaching
I primarily teach students in architectural engineering and civil engineering program. I teach usage of software used during the design phase of construction with different purposes, such as architectural visualization, BIM, scheduling, automation, and parameterization.
