Curran Contracting Moment: "One of my favorite memories is receiving the commemorative coin from the Illinois Tollway for the I-90 Jane Addams Rebuilding and Widening Project (2013-2016). It was a significant honor that recognized my role in managing one of the corridor projects (4133). The experience and opportunity provided by Curran in managing that project were pivotal in helping me develop the skills and confidence that propelled my career forward."
