Today on ASCE Plot Points marks the start of a new series called “Engineering a Culture of Inclusion,” talking with civil engineers impacted by the current sociopolitical climate, who will share their experiences within and insights about the civil engineering profession, specifically as they relate to race and racism.

She has been an active member of ASCE for two decades, and she talks today about her work with ASCE’s MOSAIC, her new podcast, Engineering Change, and why this moment is the right moment for positive change.
