What is your most memorable moment at WPM?
Going through the Presentation skills training course in Houston and meeting my peers from the other offices from around the country in a shared learning experience.
What inspired your career path?
I wanted to design buildings ever since I was a kid. When I went college and took my first architecture class, I quickly realized that architecture is more art than science, and that wasn’t me. I then headed for the engineering school across campus and the rest is history.
If you had to choose a different career, what would it be?
I would be a sailing instructor in the Caribbean.
