Will McCann

Will McCann is passionate about optimizing energy efficiency and driving sustainability in building design. As an Energy Modeler and Building Performance Consultant at BranchPattern, he uses cutting-edge simulation tools and data analysis to fine-tune building performance, reduce energy consumption, and ensure compliance with codes and standards. Will thrives on collaborating with diverse teams and working on innovative projects that push the boundaries of sustainable design.

Will holds a Master’s in Architectural Engineering from Pennsylvania State University and a B.S. in Architectural Engineering from the University of Kansas. His strong academic background, paired with his expertise in energy modeling, allows him to seamlessly collaborate with architects and engineers, using technology to bridge the gap between design and performance. Among his many accomplishments, Will has certified numerous LEED energy models and modeled complex net-zero energy and emissions buildings. He’s a LEED AP BD+C and Engineer-in-Training (EIT), and actively engages with professional organizations like ASHRAE and IBPSA to stay ahead of industry trends and best practices.

When he’s not optimizing building performance, Will is channeling his energy into sports. He’s spent years cultivating a love for hockey, lacrosse, volleyball, basketball, and baseball, and you’ll often find him on the field or the court enjoying the thrill of competition. Will loves the mental and physical challenge that sports bring, as well as the connection and teamwork involved. From high-intensity games to casual matches with friends, his enthusiasm for staying active never wavers. For Will, sports aren’t just a hobby—they’re a way to sharpen his strategic thinking, build resilience, and fuel his competitive spirit. Much like his work in building performance, sports push him to constantly improve, aim higher, and work seamlessly with others to achieve outstanding results.
