What I'm looking for

I’m seeking senior energy-auditing or quality-control roles focused on residential weatherization, technical leadership, and training within organizations that prioritize safety, efficiency, and regulatory compliance.

I am a Senior Energy Auditor and Quality Control Inspector who performs Department of Energy WAP energy assessments and ensures compliance with DOE and state housing standards. I create weatherization work orders using Hancock's HEAT modeling software and verify contractor work and invoices to program rules.

I bring hands-on technical expertise with RedCalc ventilation analysis, ASHRAE 62.2 ventilation standards, EPA Universal refrigerant certification, and multiple BPI certifications including Energy Auditor and Building Analyst. I also perform duct sealing, heat pump installation, spray-foam and dense-pack insulation assessments, solar energy qualifying assessments, and residential thermography.

I have led teams as a Senior Team Lead and Service Manager, proctored BPI field exams, and trained crews in weatherization practices. I seek to apply my technical, inspection, and leadership skills to help organizations improve home energy performance, safety, and regulatory compliance.
