I think it’s our duty to use that knowledge to provide the most efficient, innovative, and cost effective designs to our clients.
Part of TLC’s PEAK Institute, Cory supports projects across TLC on energy modeling and sustainability consulting. He is an expert in IES VE modeling software, serves as a beta tester for IES and uses software to refine designs to achieve clients’ goals.
