In an interview, Peter Trinh, multimodal engineer for the City of Seattle, WA, USA Department of Transportation, talked about his career. Growing up in the heart of Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area, it's ironic Trinh didn't go into the tech industry. But what attracted him to his career was that he thought it was interesting that technology did not define civil engineering. People were designing and building transportation projects long before a computer existed. You can touch and feel civil engineering, which he liked. He likes multimodal design isn't "cookbook engineering." Early in his career, he designed major interchanges and added lanes to miles of highways. The Millennial generation is the largest generation rhey've ever seen. So, going off sheer numbers, the influence is undeniable.
