FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
In addition to maintaining a minimum of 25 hours of Continuing Education each year, I participate in bi-weekly meetings with product vendors for interior and exterior products. I also subscribe to several design and technical professional publications to stay abreast of new technologies and other issues that affect professional practice.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Growing up I enjoyed building model cars, motors, and other gadgets. I had a passion for taking things apart and rebuilding them without instructions. I believed that the way things fit together should be obvious and that their disassembly/assembly should be clear. The passion for assembling pieces and parts led me to the love for assembling building elements to create functional spaces to live, work, play and worship.
