Serving the ASCE membership and serving the
Civil Engineering Profession
are the two main guiding principles that I keep in the forefront when I am engaging in any of the ASCE’s activities from developing products and services for the members to organizing and conducting an outreach event at the local level. One of the key tasks of the ASCE Region 8 Governors is to be a conduit for effective communication between the ASCE Board and the members of the local sections/branches that comprise Region 8.
With my background and knowledge in working in the ASCE geographic units, board level committees, and the Institutes, I am confident I will be able to use this broad range of ASCE experience to benefit Region 8 and the ASCE membership. I have volunteered for the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) since 1992 in various leadership positions, beginning with the UNLV Student Chapter, Southern Nevada Branch and Nevada Section. I have spent the past four years serving on the Committee of Professional Practice as a committee member and liaison to the Leadership & Management Constituent Committee. In addition, I have actively participated on the EWRI committee that developed the Diplomate in Water Resources Certification Program and now serve as a trustee on the Board of Trustees for the American Academy of Water Resources Engineers (AAWRE).
I am honored to be considered as a candidate for the Region 8 Governor and I am willing and eager to serve in this capacity, if elected. Volunteering for ASCE provides me an opportunity to give back to my profession, which I find to be truly rewarding.
The above statement appears as it was submitted to ASCE by the nominee. No revisions have been made to the statement by ASCE.
