PROJECT MANAGER/STRUCTURAL ENGINEER – STEERE ENGINEERING INC.


Where do you see yourself professionally in 20 years? I love what I am doing. I would like to continue mentoring the young people at work. Also, I love my job and I would like to grow in that.

What advice would you give your 22-year-old self? Never give up on your dreams. Always set your goals and spread the kindness and the goodness because it has a domino effect.

What is your favorite Rhode Island escape or hobby? We love to go out, walk around, try out new restaurants, go to new doughnut shops. We have a little puppy. We usually take her to walk on Saturdays through India Point Park, and we stop by Coffee Exchange.

Fox or MSNBC? I really find it is very hard to find ethical journalism on TV. If I had to pick between the two, I would go with MSNBC.
