  • Problem Solving: Coordinating with Region staff, designers, construction personnel, and project teams to resolve recurring design and construction challenges.
  • Program Improvement: Supporting the continuous improvement of ADA inspection processes, access management policies, and state administrative rules (including R930-6).
