Kris Marlitz
President
Kris Marlitz started his MEP career in Southern California with an intent desire for learning both standard design practices and ways to incorporate new technology. During this time, he studied at Arizona State University, continuing his pursuit of excellence. Furthering this desire for excellence and engineering design, he moved to Houston, Texas, to pursue experience in design-build construction. He also spent multiple years focusing on educational, general commercial, and multifamily design. Outside of the confines of the office, Kris enjoys spending quality family time with his wife, three biological children, and two adopted children.
