"I’m Brian! I’m a California-licensed Architect, AIA, LEED AP BD+C, and a Magna Cum Laude graduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture from USC. I’m an Architectural Exam Prep Coach and an Architectural Software Coach. My goal is helping others who are currently feeling lost, confused, overwhelmed, or intimidated by the exams or software tools used in the Architectural industry.

Exam Prep Coaching:

I tutor all ARE 5.0 divisions (PcM, PjM, PA, PPD, PDD, and CE), the California Supplemental Exam (CSE), and LEED—both Green Associate and AP: Building Design + Construction. I coach candidates through these exams with study plans that are direct, efficient, and accountable. I provide targeted outlines, module-based learning material, problem sets, frameworks, and practice prompts. Although these exams are tough, they’re very winnable with clear goals, targeted practice, and smart strategy.

Software Coaching:

I also provide software coaching from beginner to advanced for Revit, Dynamo, Rhinoceros (Rhino 7/8), and Grasshopper. I use an iterative, “Architecture-First” approach for teaching to best instill the proper industry standards, “rule-of-thumbs”, and workflows.

Excited to be on this journey with you :-)" less...
