Professional Profile: Christina Oneglia Rossi - 2017

What was your first position/job in the A/E/C Industry?  I was a project engineer for O&G on the Sarah J. Rawson Elementary School construction project back in 2004.

Was the A/E/C Industry your chosen professional path? Why or Why not? Yes, I really wanted to work in an exciting job where each day would present new challenges.

How did you get to where you are now?  When I started my career I was able to learn from exceptional project and operational managers.  That helped me move from a project engineer to a project manager role.  Over my career I’ve found myself more and more involved in industry and community efforts, which has allowed me to grow into my current business development role.
