Alameda, California, United States

I get to put my analytical skills and creativity into practice by providing HVAC and building automation systems design, commissioning, and analysis for both new and existing commercial buildings running the gamut from libraries to lab buildings. Happy to be a part of a nerdy group of problem solvers passionate about decarbonization and energy efficiency who are more than willing to talk your ear off about the latest HVAC research, standard development, or design challenge they've come across. I also lead our company's work planning and recruiting efforts.
