Senior Associate - Electrical Designer, BR+A Consulting Engineers; BS, Architecture, Wentworth Institute of Technology

White has over a decade of experience and serves an integral role on a range of projects as an electrical designer at BR+A Consulting Engineers. Known for her willingness to learn, she has excelled in leading-edge net-zero carbon building designs and other sustainability initiatives. White has designed complex lighting and electrical systems for Harvard, Pfizer, Moderna and Roche. These smart building integrations improved energy efficiency, enhanced researchers’ work environment and reduced costs. With a focus on the health care sector, White coordinated MEP systems for local institutions such as Mass General Hospital and Boston Children’s Hospital. A recent project included advanced net-zero carbon features for the 19-story life sciences research building in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and faced challenges with service capacity for an all-electric heating plant. White has volunteered with the New England Chapter of the Illuminating Engineering Society serving as a board member and was awarded recognition as an emerging professional. White participates in the Boston Society of Architects’ KidsBuild event, which provides school-age children with the opportunity to learn and explore the possibilities of planning design and construction by setting up and guiding young participants. For her firm, she assists in coordinating the annual charitable golf outing and helps to plan company events focusing on women in engineering. White loves traveling and recently went to Greece with her husband and son. White spends her time out of the office hosting family and friends in the house she has fixed up alongside her husband and relaxing on long walks in the woods with her rescue dog.
