The love of the outdoors drew me to water resources engineering as a career. Growing up in a family that valued time outdoors, I wanted a job that allowed me to work outdoors, and water resources engineering was the perfect fit. When not at work, my wife and I enjoy traveling, mountain biking, hiking with our dog, and cheering on our two daughters at their swim meets. At Westwood, I enjoy working with our talented water resources team to provide engineering solutions for solar, wind, and many other types of projects.
With several offices and professional expertise in nearly all of the US, we have what it takes to support wind, solar, energy storage, and power delivery projects across the country.
