Tina Leong has over 15 years of experience designing electrical systems including power distribution, lighting and lighting controls, and low voltage electrical systems for buildings in a wide range of projects including office/commercial, industrial, libraries, retail, restaurants, courthouses, recreation/park facilities, community centers, multifamily residential, California DSA – K-12 schools and community colleges, private schools, higher education facilities, laboratories, California OSHPD – hospitals, and Medical Office Buildings. Tina is a LEED accredited professional and has experience designing projects that have reached aggressive sustainability targets, including: Net Zero Energy/Carbon, LEED Platinum, Well, LBC, and CHPS. She has hands on experience developing documentation required for LEED and LBC certifications.
Tina’s approach to project design implements best practices in electrical engineering while producing more inventive strategies for sustainable and energy efficient solutions. Her dual degrees in mechanical engineering/robotics and conceptual information arts and her experience designing both electrical and low voltage systems have fostered her uniquely creative, problem solving skills in developing integrated electrical systems for buildings. She is well versed in essential electrical engineering practices for the built environment, performing site assessment, calculations, engineering analysis, ongoing coordination and review, for systems including power distribution, circuiting and receptacles, lighting, lighting controls, telecommunications, security, and audio-visual design.
Tina’s lighting design experience includes residential, office/commercial, industrial, schools, hospitals, MOB, and site lighting. This experience also helps her to effectively collaborate integrating controls into our projects if she works with a separate lighting or daylighting specialist. Her technology design experience includes data centers, hospitals, medical clinics, commercial, and high-end residential projects and she is experienced at performing the additional calculations needed to gain DSA approval for Fire Alarm Systems for public schools in California.
