Having begun her transportation career in 2005 working on drainage design for PS&E (plans, specifications, and estimates), design-build, and design-bid-build projects, Adhara is a senior associate and senior civil engineer in Walter P Moore's transportation engineering group. Originally from Bogotá, Colombia, she was inspired by the city's heavy congestion to "work to create alternatives as sound solutions to improve the quality of life for communities and society as a whole." Her most recent work includes roadway schematics on TxDOT projects and participating in public involvement.
Adhara earned her Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from Texas A&M University. She demonstrates strong ethics, leadership, and communication skills, and consistently completes projects within schedule and budget.
