I am a building enclosure consultant with a background in structural engineering. I specialize in the design, investigation, and rehabilitation of roofing, exterior wall, fenestration, and waterproofing systems. I founded and lead Copeland Building Envelope Consulting's practice in the Southeast.

I hold Professional Engineer (PE) licenses in five states (GA, AL, NC, SC, and TN). In September 2026, I became the 15th person in the world to hold all of the International Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants (IIBEC) consultant-level credentials, and the seventh to do so while also holding a professional architecture or engineering license.

I serve on the jury for IIBEC's Excellence in Building Enclosure Consulting Awards, an annual program that recognizes the best building enclosure projects from around the world.

The projects listed below represent my individual contributions to team efforts at SGH, Raymond, and Copeland at various stages in my career.
