This innovation eliminated job site waste, reduced field labor requirements, and increased productivity by pre-fabricating materials to exact specifications before delivery to the site. Show less

Collaborate with industry leaders on the Construction Technology Committee to define and advance best practices in tech-driven construction, focusing on emerging tools and methodologies for optimal project outcomes. Involved with developing the Mechanical Drafter role in the UA.

- Instruct the Introduction to Revit course as part of the UA Instructor Training Program (ITP), a "train-the-trainer" initiative where UA instructors from various locals are equipped with Revit skills to teach within their own regions.- Designed to empower instructors to bring BIM detailing expertise back to their locals, this program helps position our members for advanced roles in project planning and coordination within the construction industry.

Instruct advanced classes in construction technology, covering comprehensive use of Autodesk Revit, laser scanning, and robotic technology, designed to prepare members for top-tier project planning and coordination.

Led the Advanced AutoCAD course, a 26-week program designed to train members in Autodesk AutoCAD MEP, Navisworks, laser scanning, and robotic total station technology.Focused on equipping members with the skills to produce fully coordinated shop drawings, enhancing their capabilities in installation and fabrication using the latest construction technology available.

Led the EMCOR CAD Peer Group for the mechanical division, conducting monthly sessions with 79 subsidiaries to drive CAD software updates and best practices in digital construction.Developed content for annual peer meetings and played a key role in the rollout of new hardware and software, helping standardize technology usage across multiple divisions.
