I help fill the new home information gap by providing homeowners with the ideas, tips, reminders, and education otherwise missing from the normal home building or remodeling process. Through my books and seminars, I address the functional aspects of home construction, design, and usage from the ground up, including items such as green building, energy efficiency, disaster mitigation, air quality, aging in place, plumbing, electrical, lighting, and storage. I help homeowners take control of the budget process while at the same time creating an energy-efficient, healthy environment that meets their unique needs.
