AVI-SPL moved me to the role of Project Engineer. The main responsibilities are to participate in the equipment procurement process and to develop CAD drawings. This position is familiar to me as I’ve been seeking the change since well before the pandemic started. This moves me away from the commission engineering to working at a desk and with the Design Engineering team.

My previous work in the field was always an adventure. My time developing good relationships with the clients helped AVI-SPL to win repeat business. We have a great team. Nonetheless, I will NOT be missing the 1.5 to 2 hour commute to Chicago every day (one way). Instead I’m filling that time with family, exercise and volunteering with the youth at my church. It’s a good move.
