Vision statement

I would be honored and privileged to serve ASCE as Region 5 Governor. I envision my role to be humble as to serve the engineering profession and to be a proud leader of our community. I look forward to the opportunity to be a liaison between my local Section, my local Branch, and Region 5 and Society. By sharing our experiences at every stage, from student to Fellow and everywhere in between, we will learn from each other and understand better how to promote ASCE’s mission.
