About MRE
The cleverness behind the fox:
Thomas Timmons, PE, Founder
Obsessed with Lego since a child, Thomas was born to engineer
and build. An alum of Oregon Tech with degrees in Engineering,
Physics, and Math, and a license in Civil Engineering
specializing in structural, he knows how to work a calculator
like none other. Before forming Madra Rua Engineering, Inc. in
2023, Thomas built a reputation as one of the few engineers
mastering shipping container homes and buildings, with works
such as Fortress Obetz in Ohio, The Box Garden in Texas, and
Taco Bell Shipping Container Restaurant in Michigan. Thomas also
assembled a portfolio full of sustainable buildings such as
earthbag & rammed earth, livable treehouses, ICF, SIPs, modular,
and shipping container buildings. If an engineer has ever told
you that your building was "out of the norm", Thomas has
engineered it. Yes, even a full-sized Lego home!
