"your project has the capability ..."

Capability Engineering exists to bring your building project into reality.

My education includes the following degrees

• Bachelor of Science in Geological Engineering - Colorado School of Mines

• Master of Science in Environmental Engineering - University of California Berkeley

• Master of Engineering in Natural Resource Engineering - University of British Columbia

  I have years of experience with large engineering consulting firms working on all size projects across the US. Projects have included rural and urban land development, decommissioning military bases and operating restarted gold mines.

  I started Capability Engineering to fill the void in small-scale, off-grid development in Northern California. In 2012, as a new rural landowner, I was looking to develop and off-grid property into a homestead. What I encountered was a maze of bureaucratic red tape. I could not identify anybody who could give me clear direction on any of the issues that I came up against. And there were a lot of issues.

  Information that I got from attorneys, real estate agents, county inspectors, tradesmen, and others in the field turned out to be wrong as often as it was helpful.

  Over the last decade, I have built a fully permitted, off-grid homestead in an ex-urban envirnoment on a site that was originally thought to be undevelopable. Supposedly unsolvable problems including site access, lack of water, and unsuitable soils, were all addressed by my engineered solutions
