United StatesWhat I'm looking for
At Solid Plan Engineering, I lead residential and light commercial structural engineering services as Senior Principal Engineer and Founder.
I turn complex design and construction challenges into practical, well-coordinated solutions, drawing on hands-on experience with timber, concrete, and steel construction.
Before founding Solid Plan Engineering, I co-founded Simply Strong Engineering and worked as a Project Engineer at Lovelace Engineering. I bring an owner's perspective to project priorities, client service, accountability, and business performance.
I enjoy connecting technical expertise with people and process—translating complicated issues into clear decisions, improving how work gets done, and helping teams maintain quality and momentum.
