For the next 35 years he worked for major electrical contracting firms and eventually became a project engineer. In his work he incorporated numerous isometric and perspectives in field shop drawings to give a clearer understanding of what he what he was trying to accomplish. Some of his major projects included Madison Square Garden, AT & T Office Building, New York Hospital CV Star Pavilion, the Brooklyn Navy Yard Generator Plant plus numerous commercial and industrial projects.
