What I Do:

I oversee the day-to-day operations of CRANSTON and all of its regional offices. At the same time, I provide guidance and direction to our teams of engineers, landscape architects, and surveyors as they pursue and deliver infrastructure design services to public and private clients – and the communities we serve – across our growing Southeastern footprint.

My Professional Experience:

I have served in the design and construction sector for more than 25 years, developing a wealth of diverse design and program management experience, including projects involving stormwater, water utilities, transportation, and site development. I successfully have designed and managed projects with values ranging from a few thousand dollars to more than $70 million. I joined CRANSTON in 2021 as a Senior Project Manager.

My Education:

  • Master of Business Administration, Augusta State University
  • Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Georgia Southern University

Why “empowering communities to thrive” is so important to me:

Providing sound infrastructure for communities is the foundation for often-overlooked quality-of-life elements such as reliable water systems, accessible parks and trails, and safe roadways. Assisting in the establishment of a firm infrastructure foundation is extremely rewarding, as it serves as the basis for broad-reaching growth and enhancement of services for all.
