Oct 2005 – Nov 2012 Cabin John, Maryland I started out transferring hand drawn plans to AutoCAD in 2005. I was also responsible for preparing equipment and utilities connections schedules, cut sheet books and project documents. I soon began designing projects under the supervision of Richard Hopkins and Warren Schneider. As Warren retired I took on a broader role in the company. My role in design and project management responsibilities increased until I was a Senior Associate. I became proficient in writing specifications and helped HFS transition from AutoCAD into Revit. My degree in Mechanical Engineering gave me an advantage in coordinating complicated refrigeration and ventilation designs and assisting the engineers in finding efficient solutions. With the Hopkins Foodservice design team I worked on all types of projects from 300 sqft coffee shops to 40,000 sqft production kitchens. Our projects covered both the public and private sectors. Our clients included corporations, law firms, government offices, military, elementary schools, collegiate dining, hospital, and foreign governments.
