Summer has settled into Annapolis and the ripening tomatoes in my garden remind me that even working with nature a little bit has its rewards. Similarly, the dedicated tending to COPRI by our committee and chapter leaders and members has yielded steady growth in our overall membership and service to the profession and public. I am so grateful to the nearly 500 active volunteers currently working on our committees and chapters who make COPRI a leader in advancing the profession.

As we kick off a new year, I am delighted to take on the role of COPRI President. I’d first like to give a huge thanks to our past president, Steve Balint, P.E., D.OE, F.ASCE, for all his work to start some great initiatives last year, and I’m excited to keep that momentum going while working with each one of you through COPRI’s unique committees and professional and student chapters.
