Summary

I have worked in Engineering & Land Development for 26 years. In that time I have designed multiple subdivisions and managed the development of 5,000+ lots. Through that time I have gained extensive knowledge in all aspects of building a subdivision. However, I feel my greatest accomplishment and asset is the relationships I have developed with various municipal and regulatory agencies. I've developed strong working relationships with various City Engineers and inspection groups along with the Army Corps, Fish & Wildlife & DWR.
