Civil Engineering Alum Named 40 Under 40 by Mass Transit Mag

Teri M. Marsh, who earned a bachelor's degree in civil engineering in 2010, was recently named one of Mass Transit Magazine's 40 Under 40 for 2021. According to Mass Transit, the 40 Under 40 Awards recognize individuals who have shown a capacity for innovation, demonstrated leadership and a commitment to making an impact in transit. Marsh, whose career has been "wholly dedicated to transit," has worked in the fields of design, program management and construction management of light rail and streetcars.

Marsh currently works as Project Manager at HNTB in the Seattle area. According to Mass Transit, she is committed to ensuring that projects she leads serve the community, providing options that align with transportation needs and benefit underserved populations. By understanding how patrons will engage with the service provided by each capital project, she ensures that each one goes beyond infrastructure building and, instead, is designed to fit into its surrounding community and deliver the results that best fit the needs of those who will use it.

"I am proud of expanding my skillset beyond technical work into value engineering to support my clients’ programs in a focused way," Marsh said. "Showing up day after day to solve challenges with a high-performing project and client team. The people really make the difference. Knowing we are working towards the same mission of expanding services and opportunities for community transportation choices."
