My CAD skills, hometown knowledge, and a fresh perspective.
What personal or professional activities/involvement are you most passionate about?
I'm most passionate about helping others problem solve. Earlier in my career, I worked in land development and site layouts, which required some creativity and a bunch of design changes to appease all parties. I enjoyed the whole process of working as a team to find the perfect layout.
When I'm not working, I enjoy…
snow skiing or sitting on a beach (whichever the weather permits).
Where did you receive your education?
The University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
What is something about you that might surprise most people?
I can't burp.
I'm known around the office for…
bringing people together, always making lunch plans, and rarely having a free weekend.
What is your Spirit Animal?
When I ran hurdles in high school, I was called Gazelle. I was told that's my spirit animal and I'm sticking with it.
