What inspires you? The opportunity to give back in a meaningful way. My passion for environmental engineering started when I was serving in the U.S. Army on Johnston Atoll, a 2-mile-long island in the middle of the Pacific—yes, this was for the Army, not the Navy or Air Force! The facility incinerated obsolete stockpiles of chemical weapons left over from World War II, and I got involved in an effort to begin disposing of that waste in an environmentally sustainable manner. The experience drew me to environmental engineering as a profession. I believe that we have a responsibility to keep the planet habitable for future generations, and it’s inspiring to me to do work that contributes to that cause.

Which one of CDM Smith’s core values do you identify with most and why? Teamwork. Given the complexity of the projects we get to do at CDM Smith, it’s very rare that a single person can execute a project all by themselves. I really enjoy working with our teams and we are so lucky to have, bar none, the best people in the industry.
