01 / About

Commercially minded, detail obsessed

I am a Quantity Surveyor and Estimator with 7+ years of Gulf and South Asian experience, specialising in accurate measurement, tender pricing and post-contract commercial control.

From take-off in PlanSwift and AutoCAD to negotiating subcontract packages and certifying interim payments, my work protects project margin while keeping delivery teams moving.

"Every quantity tells the truth about a project's cost."
