For our 6th #43GreenFriday, we introduce you to Norbert! Norbert is the Director of Facilities Management & Engineering at #Habitat. When he's not focused on project management, Norbert enjoys spending time with his Mini Schnauzer, Toby, who just absolutely loves to bark at everything that moves. When Toby isn't keeping Norbert busy, he enjoys playing tennis (to which he claims he's "decent")!

Norbert has lived quite the nomadic life! Born in Poland, he moved to Germany when he was five; following that, he and his family picked up and moved to Boise, ID for a few years before settling down in Chicago when Norbert was around the age of 10.

When Nobert got to college, he continued to travel around! He studied abroad for a year in Vienna, Austria, which also afforded him the opportunity to travel all over Europe during that time. Of all the places he's lived, his favorite would either be Germany or Boise! He particularly remembers hanging out in the back of the ranch in Idaho, feeding horses with apples and carrots when he was a young kid.

How did this world traveler land at #43Green? Well, Norbert got into his line of work by excelling in math and science, and he ultimately went the electrical engineering route! We're so happy to have Norbert and his witty sense of humor on our Habitat & 43 Green teams!
