What do you do now and what are you planning for the future? Currently, I perform existing building & new construction commissioning studies for CodeGreen. Additionally, I assist in developing and managing new engineering services to provide to our clients. Ultimately, greatly expanding my engineering knowledge is my broad future goal. I'd like to pursue my PE license and work in as many buildings as I can with a myriad of different systems in order to continuously work towards that goal.
How do you unwind from a busy day in real estate? I like to listen to rock records, and explore new record stores and eateries around the city.
