Some of you may recognize my name, or even the photo next to this column. I’m not exactly a stranger to the plumbing and heating industry. Just over a year ago, I took on the role of chief editor for pme sister publication Plumbing & Mechanical magazine. Prior to that, I spent five years writing about HVAC with another BNP Media sister publication, The ACHR NEWS.
Last February, I sat in this exact spot writing my first editor’s column for PM. Now, as I get ready to step into some very big shoes and take over pme from my predecessor Mike Miazga, I can’t help but reflect on what a different world it is with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
