I worked with a team of engineers and learned how high voltage power projects are completed at the design level through developing wiring schemes, engineering drawings, studies, and reports. In addition, I attended many classes and lunch & learns held by various vendors and Dashiell engineers. My most memorable learning experience was completing AC & DC load calculations for a 230kv – 34.5kv substation with the guidance of my supervisor.

I love my team and feel that I am working around a family. My Supervisors are very easy going, they are always encouraging, and they have always, from the start, valued every work I have done no matter how small. It has been a great environment to ask questions and get help on anything while all my coworkers are willing to spend whatever time needed to guide me through any task.

I decided that I wanted to work for Dashiell quickly after my internship. I saw the amount of knowledge the field guys had and was told the other departments were just as strong. This made me want to work for Dashiell.
