Who I am

Reliable. Technical.
Ready to contribute.

I'm a Sri Lankan professional based in Sighișoara, Mureș since 2019, holding a long-term EU residence permit with full rights to work in Romania. I bring a rare combination of hands-on production discipline and advanced technical survey skills.

My day job is industrial sewing — airbags, heavy-duty bags, outdoor tents — where precision and pace matter. Outside the factory, I co-founded Dhaven Building Insights SRL, where I operate FARO 3D scanners, fly DJI drones for LiDAR and photogrammetry surveys, and deliver heritage documentation packages to municipalities and private clients.

I am a quick learner, procedure-driven, and comfortable working both independently and as part of a team in Romanian, English, or Sinhala.
