 Tori spent three summers focusing on lighting and electrical design beginning with Stantec Incorporation in their Butler, Pennsylvania office during the summer and winter breaks of 2016.  At this AE firm, Tori was introduced to lighting and electrical design on projects including healthcare and higher education. Tori began her summer of 2017 at James Posey Associates in Baltimore, Maryland where she assisted on their electrical team. She spent her time learning low and high voltage system design for K-12 educational buildings and government projects. During the second half of that summer, Tori studied abroad throughout China with Penn State Architectural Engineering where she studied at Tsinghua University and The University of Hong Kong. Her final internship began in January of 2018 and continued throughout the summer of 2018 with Barton Associates in State College, Pennsylvania. Here, Tori had the opportunity to be involved with many projects for The Pennsylvania State University involving both lighting and electrical design.
