Rhiannon climbs cooling tower ladders like a ninja and willingly crawls around ceiling spaces or wherever her job requires to investigate or troubleshoot HVAC equipment.
Outside of work, Rhiannon loves the mountains and being outdoors. She spends most of her spare time skiing and travelling with her family, and friends. Her “mildly” competitive spirit motivates her to compete in local golf tournaments and show jumping events with her horse Perry.
