What associations or organizations are you affiliated with? CREW - member; WWIRE – founding sponsor; The Furniture Trust – co-founder; Youth Lacrosse.

Why the A/E/C Industry? All aspects of the AEC industry impact people through their environment.  Although we may not be researching the next life-saving therapy, we’re providing a safe, reliable, clean environment for scientists.  Likewise, we’re not developing the next breakthrough application, but we do create collaborative, technology rich spaces that encourage people to seamlessly interact and share ideas locally and across the globe.
