Claire has worked on projects around the globe and brings a wealth of experience from large hub to general aviation airports.

Now stateside, Claire has quickly adapted to the U.S. market. Claire is always ready to learn and eager to solve the next airfield problem.
A true team player, Claire has shown consistent generosity with her time and experience, always willing to mentor the younger and less experienced team members.

Always thinking outside the box, Claire consistently looks for creative ways to meet stringent aviation standards while employing new technologies and methods. She is so much more than an engineer; she’s a skilled problem solver, and a valuable asset to not only our team, but the aviation the industry. Congratulations, Claire! We can think of no one more deserving.
