Congratulations Zack! Whitchurch Engineering is a wonderful, community minded, business. Lisa and Leonard are some of the most generous and gracious people we know.
wonderful !
Congrats Zach!
Way to go Zach! What a great accomplishment!
I went to HSU with Zach and he’s as good a guy as he is talented. So glad to hear this news. Humboldt needs more like him.
For a woman owned business they clearly don’t care much about pushing for more representation in the engineering field. How many of the 14 employees that received their PE license are women? There isn’t a single female identifying engineer on their team. Feels like a joke saying it’s woman owned when the only woman who has a leadership role is the wife of the engineer that started the company. Congrats to Zach, he definitely earned this but shame on Whitchurch Engineering for trying to insert themselves into a space they don’t represent in their business.
Meg: If you have half as much determination and talent at becoming an engineer as you do judging other people; I guarantee they would give you the opportunity to change your researched statistics into something you would even approve of. Opportunities knock on doors. Be a door, don’t be a wall. They have built this company from nothing as a team. They deserved this recognition and so does Zack for all his hard work.
