I help building owners, developers, and design teams close the gap between how a building is modeled and how it actually performs — combining building energy modeling with mechanical (MEP) design to reduce energy use, operating costs, and carbon impact. Most freelancers do either the energy model or the mechanical design. I do both, which means the two actually align — and you don't need to coordinate between two separate hires. Why clients work with me: • Integrated energy modeling + MEP design under one roof • Code-fluent across ASHRAE 90.1, NECB, Title 24, IECC, BREEAM, and Passive House • Data-driven, fully documented, on-time deliverables 🖥 Energy Modeling & Sustainability EnergyPlus, DesignBuilder, IESVE, PVsyst · ASHRAE 90.1 / Title 24 / NECB / IECC compliance · energy audits (ASHRAE 211, ENERGY STAR) · 179D support · daylight, thermal comfort & PV feasibility studies 🏢 Mechanical (MEP) Design HVAC system design (VRF, AHU, chillers, boilers, heat pumps) · heating & cooling load calculations · plumbing, fire protection & gas systems · full Revit MEP modeling with clash detection · equipment selection, BOQ & specs 🏊 Specialized: Pool & High-Humidity Spaces Hydraulic design, equipment sizing, and HVAC for pool halls and spas 📊 Engineering Analysis & Automation FEM & CFD simulation · MATLAB modeling · Python automation for engineering workflows 📩 Let's bring your high-performance building vision to life — message me to discuss your project.
