Elected Region 1 Governor

Portrait of Brad Summerville

Vision statement

As an ASCE Region 1 Governor, I will be an advocate for the Civil Engineering Profession and ASCE. My vision mirrors that of ASCE, to deliver the greatest value to our members, advance the great profession of civil engineering and serve the public good. I began as an ASCE member in college and have been an active member for the past 13 years. My involvement in ASCE has had a positive impact on my career and made me a better engineer.

I will take an active role to ensure other members have similarly positive experiences with the Society. I will motivate members to be more involved at all levels of the organization, encourage participation in regional opportunities for professional growth as well as participation in the technical and professional conferences and continuing education provided by the Society. I will encourage communication between all levels of the organization, especially members during their transition from student members to younger members.

I look forward to the opportunity to further support our membership and our profession.
