Ten years ago, I moved from the UK to Maine, immersing myself in the home improvement industry. Starting as a spray foam applicator and cellulose insulation installer, I eagerly absorbed insights into building science and the nuances of air sealing. Along the way, I honed my skills in waterproofing crawlspaces, delving deeper into the craft.
Upon obtaining certification from the Building Performance Institute (BPI) as a certified building analyst, I shifted towards conducting energy audits, assisting homeowners in mitigating energy costs and enhancing their winter comfort. My journey led me to assume the mantle of quality assurance inspector at Efficiency Maine, before venturing into independent territory, offering tailored weatherization estimates and energy audits.
Currently, my focus lies in my role as a specialist in insulation and air sealing at TC Hafford, where I am committed to optimizing homeowners' comfort and significantly reducing their energy expenditures. Additionally, I lend my expertise to designing waterproofing systems for basements and crawlspaces, catering to individual requirements.
Outside of work, I cherish moments spent with my spouse and four children, alongside pursuits such as reading, outdoor adventures, and occasional gaming.
