Why did you start Resilient?
“The consulting engineering industry has drifted to focus on growth and profit, with some firms becoming faceless invoicing machines. I wanted to re-focus on delivery of projects that make a positive impact on our communities, infrastructure, and natural environment. By starting a new firm, we could build a team of committed and talented people who share a passion for quality engineering and client service while working on enjoyable projects. Our vision is to offer high quality and responsive service to our clients. We have maintained this vision by attracting and retaining the best people. I’m very proud of our team and look forward to a bright future with Resilient.”
