Hi, I'm Cole.
Project engineer at PK Associates in Scottsdale, designing the structure for parking garages, hotels, apartments, retail and performing arts buildings across Arizona.
I got into engineering at the Engineering Academy at Olathe Northwest High School in Kansas, where I spent my senior year as project manager of a seven-person robotics team, keeping the budget and the build schedule on track. That led me to civil engineering at Arizona State University, where structures quickly became the part I cared about most: steel, concrete, timber and foundation design.
In 2022 I joined PK Associates in Scottsdale as a structural inspections intern, learning how drawings turn into buildings on real job sites. Today I'm a project engineer there, working on everything from parking garages and wood-framed hotels to the new performing arts center for Central Arizona College in Coolidge.
