Vision statement

As a past Region 1 Governor who served two terms, I am running for Region 1 Director as I want to continue to strengthen the connections between ASCE members, Sections/Branches, and Student Chapters across Region 1. Our current Director has done an excellent job building momentum, and I want to continue that progress by promoting a culture of leadership, collaboration, and engagement throughout ASCE. My goal is to link members and Sections/Branches across Region 1 to share ideas, expand professional networks, and amplify the collective voice of civil engineers throughout our Region and beyond. I will work on collaborating, sharing knowledge, and empowering the next generation of civil engineers to contribute to the growth and vitality of our civil engineering community.
