Region 3 Governor Official Nominee
Vision statement
My vision as a Governor would be to continue to provide leadership and mentorship to all members in the region and the greater ASCE community. I especially want to focus on development of those skills in our younger members. Early in my career, I had leaders within ASCE that provided me with the same mentorship and guidance. ASCE continues to provide a strong organizational framework, outreach opportunities, and professional support that inspire and equip the next generation of engineers to stay engaged and develop into well-rounded professionals. I look forward to the opportunity to serve the members of Region 3 as Governor. I pledge to strengthen collaboration, foster innovation, and ensure that every member’s voice is heard.
