What do you think WSB does really well that more people should know about?  

I have always felt as though WSB values their employees. They have really prioritized creating an environment where employees FEEL valued, and that is SO important. Happy employees provide better results! 

If you could say one thing to all our clients as we celebrate this milestone, what would it be? 

Just watch where we are going next! 

What keeps you excited about working at WSB?    

The people I work with are really what drives me to feel excited to go to work every day. We have a cohesive, fun group who can count on each other. Work hard, play hard!  

What does being a part of a company celebrating 30 years mean to you?   

Celebrating 30 years really puts us in the sweet spot – we are still a young-ish company in terms of being exciting, up and coming, and creating momentum, but we also have a solid history demonstrating longevity, dedication and experience. This is the perfect age!  

Fast forward 30 years – what do you think people will say about WSB’s impact on the world? 

In 30 years, people will look back and say, “WSB changed the landscape of the engineering field.” They will say this because we are going to be willing to embrace technology, develop new ways of doing things and creative new services. We are forward thinking, and we will be remembered for that.
