"If you want something in life, go ask for it."

 

These are just two of the many takeaways you will get when you listen to this Episode.

 

Chris Hughes, now the HVAC Business Development Manager for the Energy Conservatory, is a long time HVAC/Mechanical contractor that is now tuned in to Building Performance – a technical area he was never aware of until the last couple of years.

 

He continues to bring you along on his Building Performance learning journey through webinars and in person trainings acting as a two-way translator between these two worlds for example in his "10 methods of Air Flow training."

 

Chris details out his career path and some of the crucial decision points he encountered along the way: including the time he walked out of class and his exposure to the purity embodied in the "chamber of truth."

 

Chris is a great story teller, I am pretty sure you will enjoy this.,,,
