As a highly skilled and experienced professional with expertise in designing and implementing projects and programs to improve energy efficiency while reducing energy costs, I possess the knowledge and skill set that will allow me to contribute to the success of your company.

My background spans excellent experience developing and evaluating energy systems and programs throughout the designing, building, and remodeling stages of construction. From performing on-site verifications of energy efficiency measures and conducting quality assurance evaluations to monitoring energy equipment and systems and managing energy audits, I excel at driving optimal energy efficiency for new construction while working with auditing and engineering teams to rein in costs and ensure compliance.

The following achievements demonstrate my qualification for this position:

Spearheaded all energy-related projects, programs, and initiatives for the Crenshaw Construction firm, tracking and reporting on energy usage of ~$80M per year across the state of Connecticut in facilities including hospitals, manufacturing plants, multifamily residential buildings, and educational campuses

Identified, quantified, and pursued energy conservation and system upgrade opportunities relating to building envelope, lighting, EMS, motors, VDFs, and HVAC systems, resulting in higher efficiency and approximately 23% energy savings per building

Conducted comprehensive feasibility studies using software modeling tools for solar photovoltaic and solar thermal system designs

Cut natural gas usage expenses at Hartford City College by more than $525,000 per year by upgrading the temperature controls of 175 heaters

Assisted with code compliance drawings, construction drawings, and schematics during initial design phases of construction

Interacted with cross-functional agencies and teams to ensure project success; supported mechanics and electricians in equipment and system installations and modifications

Attained a bachelor of science in environmental engineering from the University of Connecticut

My proven capability to optimize energy efficiency and reduce energy costs – along with my solid skills in communication and team collaboration – will contribute immensely to the success of Sound Energy Design. Thank you for your consideration; I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Sincerely,

Kyle C. McMahon
