Our firm has worked with Dan for over 14 years in his role as Project Manager for the New Haven School Construction Program. He was instrumental in creating the successful process which resulted in almost every school being re-built or replaced. These Projects had numerous dimensions which Dan had to navigate for them to succeed - including users, city representatives, neighborhoods, state requirements, building officials and of course the students. I know Dan to be an excellent manager, capable of most any task in his field.
