About Me:

I'm based in Scotland, UK, with over 35 years of hands-on design and detailing experience in the Architectural (AEC) sector. I work globally as a premier SketchUp Authorised Trainer, CAD & 3D visualisation consultant, and official UK software reseller. My mission is simple: to deliver transformative, results-driven support to professional designers, technologists, and creatives—far beyond the standard training experience.

What sets me apart is not only my extensive background across eight architectural practices, housebuilders, and construction companies but also my proven ability to deliver real-world, project-driven training that meets critical deadlines. I don’t just teach software—I empower professionals to work smarter and faster with tailored, on-project coaching and consultancy that aligns with their exact needs.

With accreditation history from Autodesk and SketchUp (via @Last Software, SketchUp Creators, Google, and now Trimble), I offer unique insight and privileged access as a long-standing UK partner. My relationships with software developers allow me to provide ahead-of-the-curve knowledge and capabilities to my clients—backed by glowing testimonials and long-term partnerships.

Whether it's a design competition or a full-scale project delivery, I consistently deliver high-quality, high-value work with professionalism, clarity, and care. I live and breathe the creative process, and I’m passionate about helping every client succeed—overdelivering at every opportunity.

Advantages of Online Tutors & Services

Effective


The process of learning 1-on-1 with a live tutor lets you actively participate in the learning. You can immediately repeat a concept in your own words, ask clarifying questions, or demonstrate a concept back to your tutor to ensure understanding.

Efficient


Save time and resources by learning from the comfort of your home. Avoid commuting expenses and focus on learning only the tools you need with personalized lessons tailored to your specific workflow.

Recordable


No need to take notes! We record your lessons so you can replay them at your own pace later. Keep these recordings for future reference and reinforce your learning whenever needed.

Fun


Learning with a dedicated tutor makes the experience enjoyable and interactive. Discuss problems, practice together, and enjoy the human conversational element that brings life to online learning. Reach out anytime you need assistance!

Tutors & Services Philosophy

Don't Learn Alone

Professionals these days are sitting alone and staring at their computers. They spend years searching online for tools that will increase their workplace efficiency—digging through forums and watching lengthy videos for the right CAD or visualization tip.

Sometimes they just have one small question that would take a person two minutes to answer, but customer support lines are a thing of the past. Big companies will direct you to an FAQ that will hardly begin to answer your question.

Bring Back the Human Connection

We strive to bring human connection back to the work environment. Our tutors work directly with you to solve your problems, similar to the way an apprentice works hand-in-hand with a skilled professional.

Screen-share technologies like Zoom have allowed us to work together in real time. We can see each others' screens and cursors, switch presenters to share information easily, and even turn on webcams for a more human interaction. Learn efficiently across workflows like architectural rendering, interiors, mechanical modeling, and construction documentation.

Tutors, Services, or Both

Sometimes our clients want to learn a program from beginning to end; sometimes they completely hand over the services to us; and other times, they want something in between.

Some clients want to be able to use the program on a basic level and let us do the hard stuff. Others want to co-work with us, supervising our work to ensure their artistic vision is realized. Along the way, they learn the tools—whether that’s SketchUp, Blender, Fusion 360, Revit, or AutoCAD.

By the end of the process, some clients are able to wean themselves completely off of our services and are empowered to do the work themselves. If they get stuck or behind on a deadline, they use us as a lifeline. They can call anytime—even if it’s just a 10-minute question—we are here to help.
