Okay, let’s calculate this. Jesse has skills in HVAC, MEP, sustainable design, and project management, which are in demand. He’s also got experience in autocad and submittals. Location is Baltimore, MD, which is a moderate-cost-of-living area. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median annual salary for HVAC technicians in the Baltimore area is around $55,000. However, considering his education and skills, I'd estimate his hourly rate to be around $125, which is slightly higher than the median salary. This is a reasonable estimate, considering his expertise and location.
