SEATTLE, Wash.  – May 20, 2019 -- DCI Engineers, a civil and structural engineering firm, is pleased to announce the promotion of the following staff to their various roles.

DCI Principal Dick Hemmen has officially announced his retirement from the firm! What that really means is that he will be part-time, wrapping up two small projects, and attending future social company events. DCI Engineers has become such a big a part of his life, walking away completely and disconnecting from the firm would be hard to do, he confessed.

DCI hosted an annual end-of-summer golf tournament last month at Newcastle Golf Club to benefit Childhaven! 288 golfers from the A/E/C industries, plus 100 DCI and Childhaven staff, enjoyed a day of golf and fundraising activities. Out of town DCI staff came from offices in Anchorage, Alaska; Spokane, Washington; Missoula, Bozeman, and Kalispell, Montana; San Francisco; and Los Angeles.

Since March is national Women’s History Month, we spoke to our talented female engineers and associates on what inspired them to pursue careers in the architectural/engineering/construction industries. Were they inspired by a teacher? Do they have professional experiences they want to share? This is the first of a two-part post highlighting their origin stories.

On Baja California’s southernmost tip, a granite mountain crashes into the Pacific Ocean. This is the site for the majestic Grand Solmar Land’s End Resort and Spa, located in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. From the magnificent ocean side infinity pools to the breathtaking ocean views, this entire development feels like an oasis. Building such a luxurious facility presented some unique and stimulating challenges.
