Executive Director
Structures

A Managing Principal and Walter P Moore's global aviation practice leader, Blair assumed the Executive Directorship of the firm's Structures Group in 2019, which spans 16 U.S. offices and four international locations and encompasses specialty groups in structural engineering, façade engineering, parking services, secure design, and construction engineering. Having designed and delivered projects for large airports, healthcare systems, and public assembly venues, he is one of few structural engineers in the country to have spent 20+ years focusing primarily on the airport market.

Since joining Walter P Moore in 1992, Blair has spent his entire career at the firm, earning many distinguished accolades and founding the firm's Washington, D.C. office in 2008—a key office opening for Walter P Moore. Instrumental in establishing the firm as a leader in airport design, Blair is a globally recognized expert in aviation structures and has led the firm's dynamic aviation practice for two decades. Blair has served as a Regional and Managing Director for Structures and continues to serve as the firm's global aviation practice leader and now the Executive Director of Structures.

Blair is a registered professional engineer in the District of Columbia and Georgia.
