Brendon J. Burley

PhD, PE, LEED AP

Brendon has been designing healthcare and higher education facilities for the last decade. His projects range from laboratory equipment installation detailing to full-scale medical centers and include specialty projects related to imaging, containment, and clean rooms. In most cases, he has served as both the project engineer, responsible for mechanical design, and project manager, responsible for the successful execution of the project across the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection trades. Whether the project is an office renovation, a phased equipment replacement, a specialized research facility, or a complete hospital, Brendon brings a level of knowledge and practical experience to meet our clients’ expectations and deliver a successful project.

Brendon lives in Westminster, Maryland with his wife, Heather, and four children; Teagan, Olivia, Caleb, and Marin. He has a passion for good conversations, particularly when it comes to politics, science (both real and fantasy), and religion. He is open to new experiences and always looks for the local spots when he travels. When he is home he passes his time playing games with family and friends, catching up on the news, and fighting a losing battle against nature for control of his yard.
