How has ASCE impacted your work and/or what is your favorite benefit of your involvement?
I am an ASCE YMF member because it's allowed me to meet other people in the community that have similar interests as me while being able to build professional relationships

What has been your favorite ASCE event since you got involved?
My favorite ASCE event has been the PE review course.  This really helped me get ready for the PE while meeting local engineers dedicated to what they do.

What person, living or dead, would you most like to meet?
The person that I would most like to meet is Jim Carey, he's a bit ridiculous but he's always made me laugh.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be?
I've always liked math and drawing, so when I was a kid I wanted to be an Architect.

What technical project have you worked on and/or technical skill would you like to highlight and let our members know about you?
I've been working on several Summerlin West roadway projects, west of the I-215.  These roadways have had some steep grades that have created some interesting design issues.
