Bio
David Brenner
I worked with Ken for 1-1/2 years at McCabe Engineering and Contracting during which he demonstrated himself to be a competent and committed Project Manager for many different types of projects he was assigned to. He proved himself to exhibit teamwork building skills and determination during some difficult field investigations completed in very inclement weather. Working outside year round can be counter productive if there is not strong leadership. Ken always knew what needed to be done and directed and supervised well those whom he was in charge. I would recommend Ken for any Project Management position for environmental projects and I hope and expect our career paths will cross again in the future.
