E3 - Energy and Efficiency with Emily is building science, architecture, and female entrepreneurship. Welcome to Season 2: In today’s episode I had the pleasure of talking further with Doug Horgan. You may have caught him on The BS + Beer Show and I had so many follow up questions for him that I invited him to join me on the podcast. We talk about his company BOWA - a rather large construction company - and some of the things Doug and the company have done to learn, educate, and foster a great work environment. Like me, Doug is a professed building science nerd and he has plenty of great things to share including his time as the “Handy-person + Warranty Team” See the show notes on his recommendations and how to connect to Doug or BOWA. ~ Enjoy ~ Emily
