In March 2008, I joined HSMM AECOM as a Project Manager, tasked to develop a commissioning practice for the firm. Prior to joining HSMM AECOM, I was a third-party Commissioning Authority for Engineering Economics, Inc. focusing on building systems commissioning and sustainable design. I also have over 13 years of previous design experience with a mid-size A/E firm. In August 2001, I started an online community called MEPguide.com, focusing on how technology relates to our industry. Now, I am focusing my time on a soon to launch site, called CxCentral.com and this CxGreen Blog. I hold degrees in both mechanical engineering and architecture. I am a Certified Commissioning Professional (CCP), LEED™ Accredited Professional and a Construction Document Technologist (CDT). Obviously, I enjoy working on the Internet. I also enjoy spending time with my family.
