The winners of the ENR Texas/Louisiana Top Young Professionals competition are as diverse a group as the specialties and career paths in the construction industry itself—with backgrounds ranging from senior transportation engineers and planning leads to vice presidents and communication professionals.
Winners of the 2024 ENR Mountain States Top Young Professionals competition are architects, engineers, constructors, virtual design experts, project managers and even a transportation industrial rope access program leader.
Despite the long and storied history of design and construction in the region, top young professionals prove that there’s always room to create a new chapter.
This year’s class of Top Young Professionals in the Midwest affirms that the future of design and construction in the region belongs to the firms that are willing to adapt and innovate.<
For the past eight years, Senior Art Director Scott Hilling has had a huge influence over the award-winning visual impact of ENR. His efforts are well known, due partly to a recent American Society of Business Publication Editors award, for dramatic design of ENR’s popular annual construction photo contest issue. He likened it to preparing “an art exhibit in a gallery.”
Construction is progressing on a $52-million operations, maintenance and administrative building for Parker Water & Sanitation District (PWSD) near Rueter-Hess Reservoir, three miles west of Parker, Colo.
