Associate Engineer
After working in the U.S. Navy, specifically in a steam power plant, and as a Diesel Technician along the East Coast, Stephan and his wife moved to California so he could pursue a degree in Mechanical Engineering. After moving to San Francisco, he was given the opportunity to intern with the Industrial Assessment Center at San Francisco State University for three years. Without this experience working with professors who have been in the field for decades, his passion for this career would not be where it is today.
Since joining the team, working with the group has reinforced his drive to continue helping people reach their sustainability goals. In his free time, Stephan and his wife like to take their Black Lab out to explore the beauty of the West Coast.
