The Story
Chester started as a retired school bus and became a fully self-contained home on wheels. This was the kind of project that touches every trade — framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, cabinetry, and a whole lot of problem-solving in between.
Every system had to work together in a space where every inch matters. The electrical system, the water system, the structural framing — they all had to be designed as one integrated whole.

What I Learned
This project taught me more than any classroom could. How to think in systems, how to plan for the unexpected, and how to make things work when the manual doesn't cover your situation. It's also where I developed a deep understanding of electrical and solar systems that I now use in consulting work.
