Tell us a little about what you do in your role at Turner.

My role is to provide guidance and leadership support to each project that I oversee and to ensure that we are delivering upon our contract commitments to each of our clients.


Why did your company join our advisory board?

Turner joined this board as a way to become more involved with the MSU leadership and students and to learn about the curriculum so that we can pair that with our future candidates for hire.


What piece of advice do you have for students?

Be a continuous learner. In my approximately 20+ years within this industry, I have seen numerous evolutions of the way we build. This will continue to change as new technologies emerge, and being open-minded to these changes will allow you to grow in your career. Always be learning!
