Experience
Pipefitter: In high school and through college, Paul progressed from laborer and pipefitter’s helper to project manager on mechanical contracting projects in the family business. This is direct, hands on experience in how projects and equipment go together and what it really takes to get a project implemented in the field.

Mechanical Contractor: Paul worked as an engineer for a design-build mechanical contracting company and worked up to President and CEO of the company. In these capacities he personally managed and directed multimillion dollar projects with an excess of 100 tradesmen involved. In this capacity he developed in-depth knowledge of the construction industry and related trades and tradesmen relations, construction industry law and litigation and government contracting.

Design Engineer: In the mid-80s, Paul’s focus changed to design engineering. His engineering firm provided design and client construction management services for mechanical engineering services across the country. During this period Paul also designed and patented applications for an advanced, highly efficient hybrid air/water cooled condensing units and medical waste disinfection units.

Energy Retrofits: Recently, Paul has been a principal and an integral part of the Energy Resources Group, Inc. team, working on projects in energy auditing, retrofit/new construction design, project management/field implementation, and building commissioning.
