The importance of Digital Practice Management:

Digital Practice Management (DPM) is a critical part of any successful firm. It not only impacts the efficiency level of production, but it also touches on the quality of the drawings and models executed by the staff. My goal is to educate professionals on the importance of a successful DPM environment. From principals and firm owners to the young professionals learning how to navigate the architecture world. I believe having an effective DPM, a firm is guarantee to see efficient and productive results.
