“I love being an engineer because I am always solving problems and challenges, I have the opportunity to do so many different things. Engineering really has given me a great structured thought process which can be used to solve any problem!” – Kristin Sweeney, Director of Operation, US Aggregates
We recently celebrated Engineers Week, and one thing that was common among the engineers at HC+M is that they enjoy problem solving. We asked our engineers their favorite part of their career, when they realized they wanted to be in this field, what made them feel accomplished, and to describe themselves in one word. Watch the video to hear from our engineers!
