Patrick Melick

Design Engineer

"I've always been fascinated with puzzles and tinkering and there aren't too puzzles larger than a building. My favorite aspect is seeing something I've designed on paper come to life as real structure."

Pat has a collaborative spirit and enjoys the give and take process of working with the design team to create an efficient structural design.

EDUCATION:
Bachelor of Science, Architectural Engineering
