USGBC today!

Today, I went to the USGBC (LEED platinum) Headquarters in DC with a few people I work with and a few people from Davis Construction. I took a few pictures on my cell phone, but these photographers did a MUCH better job than me:































It was amazing! I learned so much during the tour, including how to implement cost-saving techniques in my future commercial designs as well as what USGBC does behind the scenes, including research for the company...which I told Anthony about and I got him interested in looking into it for a job in the fall! They said they've had interns recently, he loooves researching and green design, and LOVES wood which is covering the USGBC interior!

After the tour, we went across the street to Hudson for happy hour with a bunch of us from KGD and a few more people who work at Davis Construction. We had some really good appetizers and beer, but the sun was beaming down on us outside so we all were a bit sticky...ew ew ew!

Today was a pretty good day. Anthony got back to Lufkin safely, which made me very happy, but also getting out of the office for some sunshine and networking was really super nice!!
