Board Member of the Month Dustin Wells

Hello ASCE! My name is Dustin Wells, and I am the UNH- ASCE practitioner advisor. In this position, I aim to improve connection between the NH Section of ASCE and the UNH-ASCE Student Chapter. I have been involved with UNH-ASCE in the past, serving as the president of student chapter in 2023, and the captain of the UNH Concrete Canoe team in 2022-2023. I am excited to help grow NH ASCE through student integration, and to increase involvement for soon-to-be employees of the industry!
Professionally, outside of work, I have been enjoying my time working as a Structural Designer for H & H. I graduated from UNH in December 2023 and started working at H & H full time in January 2024, after interning with the company for two summers. I am fortunate to be working on many great bridge design projects and inspections throughout New England!
