Amelia Drake


Civil Engineer

According to Amelia, one of the most satisfying parts of her job is being able to realize her vision in a tangible way. She enjoys taking abstract ideas and simplifying them into equations or models that the entire team can collaborate on. She also loves learning and helping others discover more about AEC. “I enjoy taking the challenging technical aspects of engineering and making them feel manageable, and I think it would be really rewarding to do the same for others as a mentor.” When she’s out of the office, Amelia can be found snuggled up with her cat and a good book, listening to the rain fall on her tent, or in the kitchen cooking a delicious meal.
