I started my career on site in Yangon in 2010, supervising fire protection and plumbing installation, testing and commissioning. From 2011 I moved into fire protection design, producing sprinkler, riser, hydrant and fire alarm drawings, first at Myanmar Beca and, from 2013, at Tong Loong Engineering in Singapore.

From 2017 I moved fire protection delivery into BIM: Revit MEP modelling, Navisworks federation and clash detection, and coordination with architecture, structure and other MEP trades. I completed Specialist Diplomas in BIM (2019) and Virtual Design & Construction (2020) at BCA Academy, and an MSc in Mechanical Engineering at NTU (2024).

Today I am Design Manager / BIM Coordinator – Fire Protection. I coordinate our fire protection BIM delivery from Revit project setup to QA-checked models, manage information in Autodesk Construction Cloud in line with ISO 19650, and build Dynamo / Python tools that take repetitive work off the team. In 2026 I became a BRE Global ISO 19650-2 Project Information Management (PIM) Practitioner.

My specialist advantage is that I also design the systems I coordinate. When a sprinkler main has to move, I check the coverage rules, obstructions and hydraulics before the geometry changes, so the coordinated route still works as a fire protection system.
