I recently had the opportunity to be a guest on BIMThoughts again. It is always fun to chat will Bill Debevc and Carl Storms! In this episode we talk about my new Microsoft office books, my bike ride/commute to "work", life at Lake Flato, and more!-


Not in the shownote, but worth mentioning is Bill's firm, LPA, was the largest firm to reach the Architecture 2030 goal in the AIA 2030 Commitment reporting! Way to go Bill and company. More on that here: click here.



This was my fourth time on the program!
