David Baldacchino is the Firmwide Design Technology Manager at HOK. He is the "Jack of all trades, master of none" poster child and occasionally dabbles in DYnamo to keep his brain muscles from rusting.

Prior to joining Autodesk, she worked as the BIM Manager for Balfour Beatty Construction in San Francisco and as a member of the Interoperability Team at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory where her research focused on data translation between architectural design authoring and building energy performance simulation tools.
