ENR California is pleased to announce the 2024 Top Young Professionals in the region.
The annual awards program recognizes individuals under 40 years of age in each of ENR's 10 regions who have shown extraordinary career leadership and service. A panel of independent judges reviewed almost 70 candidates from California and Hawaii to determine the Top 20.
ENR California thanks members of this year's judging panel for their efforts in selecting the winners: Mannie Barnes, Construction Manager, Atkinson Construction; Michael Boomsma, Senior Vice President of Education & Facilities, Cordoba Group; Wendy McLeod, Project Director, Turner Construction Co., an ENR California 2022 Top Young Professional and Michelle Rabinovich, Chief Estimator, Shawmut, an ENR California 2023 Top Young Professional.
Winners from the 10 regions are automatically entered into ENR's National Top 20 Under 40 contest. Judging will begin later this fall.
The 2024 Top Young Professionals are listed below. Please be sure to read more about these rising young leaders in the February issue of ENR California & Northwest.
