As the founder of CE Solutions, I’ve been deeply entrenched in all facets of the business, encompassing business development, project leadership, financial management, marketing, human resources, and more. After a successful transition in leadership and ownership in 2022, I have continued to serve as a principal within the company. My focus now revolves around nurturing relationships, guiding and mentoring our professionals, as well as fortifying our networks and expanding our business ventures.

Creating a positive change within our communities is my passion. My journey started during my freshman year at Purdue University in 1974, when the late Professor John M Hayes, an eminent fixture in civil engineering, fueled my passion. He imparted a profound understanding of civil engineering’s role as a service to humanity. He emphasized the influence this discipline has on every facet of society – from the roads we travel, to the structures we use and inhabit. He tasked us with being ambassadors for this noble field and encouraged us to enlighten society about its significance. This resonated deeply with me, culminating in the name of CE Solutions, which stands for Civil Engineering Solutions, in 1998.

For me, what makes CE Solutions different is our marketing and client-centric ethos, where personalized, elevated service to our clients is paramount. Our servant leadership culture is the pursuit of impactful opportunities that enrich our communities. This philosophy blends seamlessly with our family atmosphere, which nurtures opportunities for our employees. The exceptional people who comprise our team are firmly connected to our foundational principles of strong relationships, mutual respect, integrity, and ethical practice.
