President
Doug Smith, PE, CEM, LEED AP, BD+C, GGP
As President, Doug is involved in the day-to-day operations and business development efforts of the firm. Doug previously served as the Public/Commercial Division leader (a division he was responsible for developing) consisting of multiple design teams and commissioning group working directly with Owners and other consulting partners.
The license and certificate designations after Doug’s name may seem like a real mouthful, but they are well deserved. A graduate of both The Ohio State University with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and Keller Graduate School with an MBA, Doug has worked in the engineering and construction engineering since 1998, joining Dynamix in 2006. He has been involved in multiple construction markets including aviation, healthcare, higher education, K-12, industrial and government sectors.
Doug’s previous roles have enabled him to gain valuable experience in operations, design, management, and business development. Previous positions with Dynamix Engineering include: Associate Principal, Senior Associate / Division Leader, Engineering Manager, Mechanical Engineer, and Controls Engineer.
Doug is a member and officer of a number of civic, community, and industry organizations, including ASHRAE and the International Code Council. He enjoys spending time with his family, is an active youth teacher, and can often be found on the fairway, where he takes a few more strokes than the average golfer but enjoys himself nonetheless.
Senior Associate/Healthcare Division Leader
Lee Anne Dye
Lee Anne attended Ohio University and has been in the engineering industry since 1979 and with Dynamix since 2005, where she serves as a Senior Associate, Project Executive and Healthcare Design Group Leader. Lee Anne’s decades of experience in engineering consulting, construction administration and project design have given her a broad design skillset, which includes lighting, general power, normal and emergency power distribution, utility coordination, fire alarm systems, nurse call and other low-voltage systems. Her project management work includes contracts, owner programming, and communication processing between owner, architect and construction team. At Dynamix, Lee Anne gets to put her skills to use on high-caliber projects such as the Lexington Medical Center, the Dublin Methodist Hospital, Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, the University of Illinois at Chicago and other medical centers, educational facilities, retail spaces, medium/maximum state detention campuses and high-rise living facilities.
When she’s not busy overseeing projects from pre-planning to ribbon-cutting or designing sophisticated systems for clients, Lee Anne can be found cruising through the Hocking Hills area on the back of a Harley with friends or helping out family members on any home project that involves paint and power tools (sadly, her family has yet to request a system evaluation or utility coordination, otherwise she would gladly help out with that as well).
