Structural engineering is more than just designing buildings—it’s about creating safe, resilient, and lasting structures that serve communities for generations. I find deep satisfaction in tackling complex challenges, whether it’s developing innovative solutions for seismic resilience, refining the performance of existing buildings, or advancing structural engineering practices through research and collaboration. At its core, my work is about problem-solving and impact. Knowing that the solutions I help develop contribute to public safety and push the industry forward makes every project meaningful. Degenkolb’s culture of technical excellence and innovation allows me to continuously learn and apply my passion to real-world challenges, which is what excites me most about what I do.
