Donald Taylor, CPD, GPD
Senior Plumbing Designer
Donald Taylor grew up in Purvis, Mississippi. He earned his bachelor’s of Science degree in Architectural Engineering Technology at the University of Southern Mississippi and began his career as a plumbing designer in Houston straight out of college. Initially designing different types of local commercial projects, two years later he advanced to the level of senior plumbing designer at one of the largest architectural/engineering firms in the world, where he gained experience working on international projects as well as learning to meet unusual criteria by a variety of clientele.
After nine years in Houston, Don decided to move to Norman, OK for a slower pace of life and to start a family. While there, he was a member of the Dallas-Ft. Worth chapter and together they helped start the ASPE Oklahoma City satellite chapter, where Donald served as interim president for two years. Five years later, Don is back in Houston with his wife Jean and daughter Savannah.
Donald became a full member of ASPE in 2004 and has served as a business meeting delegate at the 2004, 2010, 2012, and 2014 National Conventions. He is currently serving on the Houston Chapter Board of Directors as VP tech and has served as both Chairman and Co-chairman of the ASPE Houston Product Show. After earning his Certified in Plumbing Design designation, in a joint effort with a co-worker he began helping others prepare for the CPD exam. Since 2006, Donald has regularly been proctoring CPD review classes for the Houston and DFW ASPE Chapters.
