As chief executive officer, Eric is responsible for the leadership and strategic growth of our company and also serves as the chairman for the HDR Board of Directors. Eric became CEO in 2017 after previously serving as president and chief operating officer and engineering company president.

Eric joined us in 1993 in our Alaska office, where he became involved with major public-private and design-build projects and developed a passion for the use of alternative contracting methods. He was instrumental in establishing the firm’s transportation alternative delivery practice, which has since been involved in many high-profile projects such as the Oregon Bridge Delivery Program and the I-69 P3 Project in Indiana. In 2004, Eric was named the transportation business group director. Under his leadership, the transportation practice grew its planning, program management, design-build and management consulting services to complement an already strong design practice.
