Tyler Dykes
Principal
“To me, being an engineer is all about problem-solving. I am grateful for the opportunity to work on different problems, technical or not, every day for clients who are improving our world. The bonus is that the solutions to many of these problems are large-scale, highly recognizable buildings that will be around long after I’m gone.”
