LMDG

At LMDG, we value growth and learning opportunities and are constantly looking for ways to share and take in knowledge. Over the past few months, team Toronto has taken in some intern students who are interested in pursuing a career in fire protection and building code consulting. You may remember Tariq Jamadar, who recently shared a few fun facts about himself with us! We are thrilled to share that he has completed his internship and will be continuing to be a part of LMDG as a Junior Fire Protection and Life Safety Consultant. Congratulations, Tariq! We look forward to continuing to collaborate with you!

The great Aperol Spritz debate in the Vancouver office has finally been settled… or has it? Our team put their spritz-making skills to the test with different variations of the classic Aperol Spritz! It was full of fun, laughs, and some delicious drinks, all paired with an incredible charcuterie board. Who knew there were so many ways to make a spritz? 🍹 pictured: Lia Fuzzati, Erika Buzzolo, Antonella Gennusa
