RALEIGH, North Carolina—Mark Koegel has been awarded 2017 Young Engineer of the Year by the North Carolina Section of ASCE!
Mark, a design engineer who sits in Kleinfelder’s Raleigh office, serves as an assistant project manager and task lead for the Raleigh design center. As a detail oriented engineer who strives to provide quality deliverables, Mark has demonstrated exceptional performance overseeing a team of design professionals, reviewing technical components of civil designs, and corresponding with various stakeholders including clients, partners, and regulatory agencies.

For example, with some turnover occurring in staff, Mark quickly volunteered to take the lead on a constructability issue within a $100 million project.
