“I am proud of all the finished products that have been created through hard work and dedication. Being able to walk past multiple buildings and parking decks and say I had a hand in helping to create those structures keeps me excited for future projects. With a background in Construction technology, I am always thinking about where construction can go…not only with its design but also with all the new programs being used for drafting. My time working here has always felt like a family environment more than a place of employment."
