Welcome to Rising Stars 2019, presented by Civil + Structural Engineer magazine. The eighth
annual celebration of the AEC industry's top talent features 10 Civil and 10 Structural
engineers, all under the age of 40 at the time of their nomination. Though they come from
different parts of the United States and the world, went to different schools, and have
honed different specialties, they all share a few things in common – leadership, technical
ability, and service to their professions, firms, and communities. These 20 recipients
have distinguished themselves in an oftentimes thankless world of intense competition,
impossible deadlines, confounding problems, and unrealistic client demands. Instead of
being undone by obstacles, they overcome them. Their reward? The respect of their peers.
