Summary
EPA Universal-certified HVAC/R technician with 9 years servicing rooftop units, chillers, VRF and walk-in refrigeration for hospitals, schools and grocery chains across the Denver metro.

I read BAS trends, mentor apprentices and leave customers with a clear explanation and a tidy plant room.
