Over her 20 years with the firm, Jennifer has served as the Managing Director for Traffic Engineering in Houston and currently serves dual roles as the Director of Traffic Engineering (for all offices) and the Operations Manager for the Infrastructure Group. Also a member of the firm’s Operations Council and Board of Directors, Jennifer has been involved in many major projects such as the George R.
