US Army Corps of Engineers veteran and resource manager 

Many things about Mott MacDonald remind me of my service in the military, and I am proud to still be serving my community in the work that I do here. My US Air Force career in Civil Engineering allowed me to develop useful mathematical and engineering skills that I am able to use in my current role. In addition to those skills, being in the military has taught me adaptability, deadline management, leadership, efficiency, and integrity.

Leadership skills earned after 20+ years of service have helped me tackle challenges and instil vision, mission, purpose, and prioritize key opportunities to achieve my growth goals at Mott MacDonald. Like my years in service, I find success in working in teams. From junior colleagues, to very senior, I have enjoyed the energy and camaraderie shown by every person I have had to opportunity to work with so far.
