I enjoy helping people get real value from BIM by guiding them through practical and efficient use of IFC data. In the Simplebim community I support users, share tips, and promote clean and consistent model practices. My goal is to make BIM easier for everyone while encouraging collaboration between architects, engineers, and construction specialists.
