BIM Dad, founded by Gerardo Ruiz-King, is a dedicated resource platform aimed at empowering architecture students, solo practitioners, and emerging professionals in the world of Building Information Modeling (BIM). With years of experience in the architecture, engineering, and construction industries, Gerardo has witnessed firsthand the transformative potential of BIM when effectively taught.

In addition to educational resources, BIM Dad also includes interactive learning tools and a mentorship-inspired approach to make the learning process engaging. Furthermore, for parents, Gerardo offers the Little Architect Books, an initiative designed to introduce young children to architectural concepts. BIM Dad's ultimate mission is to make BIM learning accessible, affordable, and human-centered, fostering a supportive community for all learners.
