Elizabeth Collins initially pursued a structural engineering degree because she could use science and technology to solve practical problems. As a result, Liz has spent years designing, maintaining, and managing civil infrastructure, including navigation structures and roadway assets.

She is active in professional organizations that push the industry to improve the quality and efficiency of infrastructure, including the Transportation Research Board, ASCE’s Coastal, Ocean, Ports & River Institute, and the World Navigation Congress (PIANC). As President, Liz leads Collins’ ongoing efforts to build and maintain business relationships and strategic partnerships. This has led to relationships with non-traditional teaming partners who bring new technical approaches to age-old infrastructure issues. Liz looks to long-term relationships that bring mutual benefit to all stakeholders.
