Ghazal

J a v i d a n

I am a Computational Design Architect specializing in applying computational techniques and AI algorithms for design automation, engineering analysis, and digital fabrication.

I have led dynamic teams on innovative projects, identifying key areas where automation, digitalization, and computational design add significant value. In these roles, I have also served as a technical expert on digital tools and technologies used in building design.

I specialize in analyzing how architectural designs impact structural performance and energy consumption. By utilizing optimization algorithms, I work to minimize costs related to both energy usage and structural efficiency.

With strong data management skills and proficiency in Python programming, I can develop custom plugins and tools that streamline workflows across various software platforms. I excel in integrating BIM design processes using tools like Grasshopper, Rhino, and Revit, and connecting them to structural analysis and BIM software such as STAAD, ETABS, and Tekla.

I excel in both solo work and team environments, leveraging strong social skills to collaborate effectively or lead a group. I am proficient in visual coding nd optimization algorithms, AI/ML algorithms, using tools like Grasshopper, Rhino, and Python to push the boundaries of traditional design methodologies. I am passionate about solving complex challenges and quickly adapt to new situations, constantly learning and refining my skills.

I am confident that my problem-solving mindset, adaptability, and collaborative nature make me a valuable asset to any team.
