Kevin Knuth

Specialization: HVAC Controls Engineer
— After completing my BSME from Arizona State University I began my career with Johnson Controls. I was a Systems Engineer for 5 years with them, working on some of the largest projects in the Southwest, including LAX, JMC Tower at UCSD, VM Ware, Las Vegas City Hall, among others. — I went to Trane in 2014, and continued working on large engineering controls projects for Roche, Marina Heights, and Intel. — I have extensive knowledge of controls, especially in large mission critical spaces such as labs and operating rooms. — Since graduating I continued my education. I completed a Certified Six Sigma Black Belt program at ASU, and I completed a CEM certification. The CEM was recently renewed. I also taught the CEM class for a number of years.
