    The SEAoA Board wants to recognize and congratulate two of our SEAoA Young Members, Anthony Wulfers and Victoria Flys, who received scholarships to attend the NCSEA Summit this year in Anaheim. There were a lot of scholarship applicants this year so this is a great achievement for these two Arizona young members. Below is a link to the NCSEA website describing the scholarship.

    Victoria and Anthony's bios are highlighted below:

    Victoria Flys is a structural EIT at Meyer Borgman Johnson and received her B.S.E and M.S.E in Civil (Structural) Engineering from Arizona State University. She is an active member of SEAoA's Younger Member Group, serving previously as University Outreach/Student Liaison chair. She is also on the NCSEA Steering Committee for the Timber Strong Design Build Competition at the 2019 NCSEA Summit and is a volunteer with the ACE Mentor Program in Phoenix.


    Anthony Wulfers been a structural engineer for Caruso Turley Scott Structural Engineers for 7 years.  While there, he has worked on a wide variety of projects ranging from single story commercial like OHSO in downtown Gilbert up to an 11 story tower for Carvana in Las Vegas.  Anthony graduated from Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla, MO with a MS in 2012 and BS in 2010.  He has attended a few of the events put on by the young member group and was a participant on the trivia team that won our regional two years ago.

    The Phoenix ACE Mentor Program is looking for Structural Engineers to volunteer as Mentors for High School Students participating in the 2014 ACE Mentor Program at Metro Tech High School. The ACE Program is designed to introduce high school students to the wide range of career opportunities open to young people in architecture, construction, engineering, and related areas of the building design and construction industry. Students in the ACE program work closely with their mentors on hypothetical projects that provide hands-on experience in solving the types of design, engineering, and construction challenges industry professionals confront every day. 

    Follow link for tentative 2014 schedule. Meetings typically occur on every Thursday from Jan 9th to May 8th at 4pm at Metro Tech High School. The program is specifically looking for 2 engineers that would be able to participate on a weekly or almost weekly basis. Please contact me if you are able to volunteer or have any questions about the program.

    SEAoA Members,

    Every two years the Western Council of Structural Engineers Association (WCSEA), which we are all members of, has a WCSEA Round-Up.  These Round-Up’s provide a great way to get continuing education, great networking with engineers who practice in the Western US and have some leisure time in some very interesting places in the West.  In fact SEAoA has hosted the Round-Up numerous times in the past.

    This year the Round-Up is being hoisted by SEAH at the Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel, Kohala Coast, Hawaii, October 2- 5, 2013  which is on the dryer side of the Big Island.  Attached you find the Registration form and the Tentative Program.  You will notice that the programs are only in the morning since I guess it is difficult keep focused when the waves are crashing a 100 yards away.  In addition since SEAoA is a member organization of WCSEA you get to go per the Member Price for this event as with any other event the other member organizations hold.  As your WCSEA Delegate I encourage you to attend this event and support other member organizations.  If you have any questions about this event please do not hesitate to contact me.

    Sincerely,

    Ron Schneider, P.E., S.E.
    WCSEA Delegate
