Hampton Township School District High School and the new Bethel Park Elementary School
What keeps you coming back to work everday?
I try to balance the big picture with details to support the goals. But, when I was touring a school after we completed the project, I was walking with the Principal and a young boy told us with absolute glee that “it is the best place I have ever been!” It is a reminder of why what we do is so important.
What is your dream destination?
Anywhere with a beach!
