Bio 

After my years in the Navy I was on track to becoming a Naval Architect when Hurricane Katrina came and changed everything. The goal then became my becoming an Architect to help rebuild the Gulf Coast. During the year I worked for an Architect doing just that, I realized that drafting & design was my true calling. Since the building industry collapse I've been concentrating on Plant Design.
