I have called on Linda as one of her vendor reps since 2015 when she was the lead spec writer for a large mechanical engineering firm in Seattle and since set out to start her own company. Not only is she knowledgeable and well respected in the industry, but I have gotten to know her as a positive, warm and kind person. I’ve been impressed with her leadership roles in several related industry organizations which I believe sets her apart from others in that she’s always learning (or teaching) and also building a wide network to help her clients. I highly recommend Linda to anyone looking for a knowledgeable spec writer who has an eyefor detail while conscientious of her clients’ bottom line.

Myra Vaughn AIA, LEED AP

Linda is an amazing and talented mechanical engineer. I had the pleasure of working with Linda on a very challenging retail store flagship project located within a historical landmark in Boston, MA. Linda's attention to detail, strong desire to meet client needs, thorough and organized communication style makes her a stand-out mechanical engineering professional. Without doubt, I highly recommend Linda for any project type that requires a high level of excellence in mechanical engineering design and a successful client relationship!

Brett Friedman, PE

Linda is a great mechanical consulting engineer and project manager. She listens to the client, is great with team environments, delivers excellent technical solutions, and is available and accountable throughout a project (and beyond).
