Eric joined KC Engineering in 2001.  Being interested in math, science, and building things at an early age, Eric decided to pursue an engineering degree and began his course of pre-engineering study at Morningside College in 1992.  Through a part-time job during his time at Morningside for a local structural engineering firm, Eric was exposed to drafting and the structural engineering profession which prompted him to transfer to Iowa State where he obtained his civil engineering degree in 1996, emphasizing in structures.

What do you like about working at KC Engineering?

I enjoy the fact that we are always at the leading edge of new technology, design methods, and software.  The implementation of BIM (Building Information Modeling) and the ability to design projects and prepare construction documents in 3d has been very enjoyable. We are also always working on a very broad range of projects which keeps our day-to-day work interesting.
