Interns at FPA: Liam Maher

In recognition of National Intern Day, we’re continuing our spotlight series highlighting some of the students currently in the Internship Program at French & Parrello Associates (FPA). National Intern Day, held on July 27th is used as an opportunity to acknowledge and recognize the future leaders of our world. Through this spotlight series, we mean to highlight our appreciation for the Interns at FPA and all the hard work they do.

The following is a Q&A with Liam Maher, an Intern in FPA’s Telecommunications Department. Liam is currently a Junior at Villanova University where he is majoring in Civil and Environmental Engineering.

What has been your greatest takeaway during your Internship at FPA so far?
My greatest takeaways during my internship so far, is learning how an engineering firm operates, learning and gaining new information about my potential career through people in the office, and working on projects in the telecommunications department.

What would you say is the best thing about interning at FPA?
The best thing about interning at FPA is the ability to meet new people and ask questions in a welcoming environment and being able to gain experience in the office and out in the field on site visits.

What career path do you hope to take after graduation, and why?
After graduation I hope to enter the workforce in either the structural, or land development subdivisions as a Civil Engineer, because these are the fields I have the greatest interest in currently.
