BIOGRAPHY
 

David was born and raised in the suburbs of the great city of Pittsburgh.  Following high school graduation, he attended The Pennsylvania State University where he decided to study architectural engineering with emphasis on mechanical systems due to his proficiencies in math, his interest in architecture, and his life-long desire to keep the world at a comfortable temperature.

During the summer terms of 2008 and 2007, David’s education and appreciation for architectural engineering was enhanced through an internship at Vanderweil Engineers and Penn State’s study abroad program in Italy respectively.  The internship provided an extraordinary opportunity to participate in the design including the building of additions to the Venetian property in Las Vegas Nevada; while the Rome based study program offered a unique appreciation for architecture and structures of historical prominence.  Both experiences provided valuable knowledge and exposure to the architectural engineering profession.

As a senior, David is looking forward to completing his undergraduate degree with E.I.T. status, while continuing to work at Penn State’s campus fitness facility and remain an active member of the ASHRAE student branch.  In addition to an undergraduate degree in Architectural Engineering with minors in Architectural Studies and Mathematics, he anticipates earning a master’s degree in Architectural Engineering in December 2009.  Other activities include working out, participating in sports, traveling, recording music, and doing anything involving Mother Nature and the great outdoors.    Upon graduation, David is determined to become a registered professional engineer and to have a tangible impact on his profession.
