CAREER

I am a member of the AIA East Bay Chapter and have recently been involved with the Professional Practices Committee. Oftentimes our clients are architects and the AIA gives me opportunities to connect with architectural clients in a different environment and to improve the AE profession as a whole.

PASSION

I derive excitement for structural engineering from having the opportunity to mentor new engineers and watch them grow, learn, develop their careers and experience success. New engineers starting their careers bring enthusiasm for new technology, the latest research trends, and fresh ideas that reenergize me.

ON THE JOB

The best part of my job is the great people and the family environment at work.
