Why did you choose the Structural Engineering industry?

I have a detailed brain rather than an artistic one, so structural was more appealing to me than aesthetically driven architecture.

What hobbies do you have?

I love music the most and taking in live shows. I love the outdoors and visiting state and national parks. I play softball, volleyball, and bocce ball throughout the year with friends, family, and coworkers.

What ERA value speaks most to you and why?

Expertise. With 20+ years of experience in precast, I have seen a lot of difficult conditions come together and love to fall back on them when I encounter a current problem.
