Bio
Ryan Trudell
James is a very diligent employee, and someone who I can always trust to complete tasks efficiently and accurately. I had the pleasure of working with James at two firms, and watched him progress from a CAD Technician to Senior Designer. He quickly became my "go-to-guy" and happily embraced the challenges associated with each project, while also playing an instrumental role in the development / refinement of CAD standards for both offices.
