I love the daily challenges and the excitement of every day and every project is different.
Graduating with a BS in Math and a BS and MS in Engineering, Professional engineering licensure, singing professionally during my 20s, leading worship in my church for the last 10 years, and being a wife and mom.
Deciding which engineering path to take - buildings, civil/site, operations, project management - and finding a place where I feel like I fit in and can excel in my work.
Time management - finding ways to balance the demands of the job, spending time with family, enjoying my own hobbies, and being a contributor to my community through service and leadership.
I come from a small family and a small town in Mississippi. I am married and have 2 children. I also have 3 dogs - Tiny (Great Pyrenees), Olaf (Husky), and King Floof (Cavachon).
I love to dream and goals are what keep me moving forward, but I also value the here and now. I try to live in the present, soaking up all I can of each day, while striving for larger goals. Personally, I want to build a farm and become a homesteader. Meanwhile, I want to continue to my career as an engineer, eventually leading a team of engineers and building around the world.
My parents, my friends, my husband, and coworkers and bosses.
You can! Find a mentor who can help you filter through all the noise and obstacles so you can make good decisions. Also, invest some time in self-awareness, understanding who you are and what makes you you.
I love to explore whether it's traveling around the world, around my own hometown, or hiking in the nearby mountains. I enjoy music and singing.
