With more than a decade in electrical construction and a focus on distributed generation and renewable energy, my work spans the full cost lifecycle of a project, from indicative budgets and capital and operating forecasts through bid development, cost controls, and post-project variance analysis.
That experience comes from both sides of the meter, including self-perform engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) and electrical preconstruction across utility-scale renewables, medium and high voltage distribution, data centers, and telecommunications systems.
Utility-side work including project controls and lifecycle estimating for distributed energy resource interconnections, substations, and capacity expansion studies. Every estimate brings together input from developers, engineers, project managers, procurement, and field operations, and turns it into a number that holds up.
Alongside estimating, I build tools that small estimating teams often lack the capacity to build for themselves: calculation engines, pipeline automations, and business intelligence models that bring project data together for benchmarking and reporting.
This work draws on proven experience with the Microsoft Power Platform, Excel, VBA, SQL, JSON, M, Dataverse, JavaScript, and Python to build M365 native experiences, semantic models, data frameworks, Power Pivot back ends, Power BI front ends, and portfolio-level dashboard reporting. The underlying idea is that every estimate is data worth keeping, not a one-off spreadsheet, and the scenario models on this site are built on the same principle.

Experience
Each perspective reveals a different part of project cost: how the contractor installs it, how the utility connects it, and how an estimating team compares and communicates the result.
Quantity takeoff and pricing for distribution, lighting, site electrical, structured cabling, fiber, distributed antenna systems, fire alarm, access controls, and security. Installation assemblies and labor units stay connected to field conditions.
Utility-side distributed energy resources, solar site interconnections, substation maintenance, variance analysis, portfolio-level forecasting, and contingency responsibilities through every stage of bidding.
EPC cost development for PV, BESS, and PV+BESS projects with scope review, tool development, cost library programming, bid leveling, portfolio-level reporting, and consistent deliverable support for demanding project timelines.
Capabilities
The connection between disciplines
Understand the system, account for the installation, and preserve the reasoning needed for a useful review.
