23 FRESH FACE Andrew Hook BHB Consulting Engineers, SEAU The Structural Engineers Association of Utah nominated Andrew Hook, an engineer with BHB Consulting Engineers as Utah’s Fresh Face in Engineering. Andrew started at BHB in 2014 while attending school, and he immediately stood out among his peers. BHB launched an achieve- ment program to measure engineering competence and training, and Andrew was one of the fastest to complete the program. Very quickly, BHB managers felt a high level of confidence in his abilities as we witnessed his solid technical skills and strong customer service. He can work with demanding building departments on specific de- sign requirements and provide excellent communication and coordination throughout a project. Someone with his amount of experience is impressive. After Andrew earned his PE, BHB promoted him to project manager to oversee and coach other engineers. BHB has trusted Andrew as the main project engineer on our most important projects: The University of Utah Student Housing (Salt Lake City, UT), University of Utah Spencer Hall Replacement (Salt Lake City, UT), Central Utah Clinic (Salem, UT), Utah Cardiology Cen- ter (Farmington, UT), and the SolarCity Office (Draper, UT).

Imanuel created a video simulation to help neighborhoods understand how this new car and bike roundabout con- cepts would work and affect their travel. The project won the “2013 Excellence in Transportation Award – Public Participation” from the Idaho Transportation Department. Imanuel also won the 2012 ITE Project of the Year award for the Continuous Flow Intersection of the Bangerter Highway Improvement Project.

He is also very active in several engineer- ing organizations including ASCE, Chi Epsilon and ITE. He understands the value of guiding youth toward a better path.
