Biography

Shelley serves as the bridge design lead within the transportation engineering group and is responsible for performing designs for a wide range of structures, in addition to bridge load ratings for bridge projects. She also handles the development of plans, specifications, and estimates as well as day-to-day project management and client/liaison coordination. Due to the interdisciplinary approach taken toward each project, she often works with engineers of different disciplines, from geotechnical to water resources, to examine how a structure will work with its surroundings. With a lifelong interest in math and science, structural engineering was a natural fit for Shelley, to blend her technical interests with creativity and problem-solving.
