Tomi Daramola

As a licensed architect in Ontario, I have built a distinguished career spanning three continents—West Africa, Europe, and North America. My work has encompassed roles as both a designer and design/project manager, where I have consistently demonstrated a passion for creating high-quality structures that positively shape the built environment. My extensive experience includes delivering a wide range of projects across development, construction, and design-led firms.

I hold a BSc and an MEd in Architecture, as well as an MSc in Construction Economics and Management from the UK. This diverse educational background, combined with my international experience, has equipped me with a unique perspective on the challenges of integrating into the architectural industry in new cultural and regulatory environments.

I am particularly passionate about mentoring and guiding aspiring architects and design professionals in Ontario. I have successfully mentored numerous individuals, helping them navigate the complexities of licensing and securing roles in the design and construction sectors. My commitment to providing concise and targeted guidance has empowered many to achieve their professional goals. I am excited to continue sharing my expertise and insights through platforms like MentoRack, helping others succeed in their architectural careers.

As a mentor, I can offer advice on the following:

✅ Architect licensing pathways, and provincial requirements

✅ CACB academic certification success strategies

✅ The Broadly Experienced Foreign Architect (BEFA) Program option, and interview preparation

✅ Optimizing internship hours to meet the Internship in Architecture Program (IAP) requirements

✅ Licensing exam preparation and resources

✅ Architect career options and job search

✅ Architect portfolio and resume preparation
