“Over my 20-year career in architecture I have worked with many structural engineers on a wide variety of project types. I have had the good fortune of working with talented engineers during this period. Gwen of Bertolami Engineering has truly set the bar far beyond all that I had worked with prior. Her level of creativity, communication, mindfulness regarding clients' needs for both time and budget, as well as her wonderful personality have made her an absolute joy to work with on my projects. I cannot say enough about how much value she adds to my process and enhances my abilities to provide clients with everything they hope for and beyond.
