tPC Member Spotlight: Aaron Eversman

Starting today, we will begin highlighting the work of our talented members in a regular spotlight feature.  For the inaugural edition, we interviewed Aaron Eversman, a Structural Engineer from Alaska.  Aaron is an OG member at TPC.  He joined during our soft opening in May of 2015. 

 

 

What do you do for work, Aaron?


I am a Structural Engineer working for PDC Inc. Engineers, a multi-discipline engineering consulting firm based in Alaska.


What are some projects you are currently working on?


Within the last year I was the Structural Engineer of Record for a new $35,000,000 middle school currently under construction in Fairbanks, Alaska.  Currently, I am working on the structural design for the expansion of an existing medical center in Anchorage, Alaska, structural support work for a few small projects at pump stations along the trans-Alaska pipeline, as well as a number of high-end residential projects in the greater Fairbanks area.
Along with Alaska, I am a licensed Structural Engineer in Washington and Hawaii, and am working towards establishing a foothold in the Seattle market in the near future.


Where are you from?


Fairbanks, Alaska


What is your favorite thing to do in Seattle?


My daughter and I have been living in Seattle for less than a year, so our favorite thing to do still is just find a part of the city or an event we haven’t been to yet and go check it out.  The number of unique and fun options in the greater Seattle area is pretty amazing.  We’ve really enjoyed living here so far.


What's your favorite thing about the Pioneer Square neighborhood?


There are lots of great food and drink options within a short walk.


Is this your first time working in a coworking or communal work environment?


Yes


What drew you to TPC?


I worked from home for the first 6 months I lived in Seattle but realized that for the sake of my sanity I needed to get back to a more office-like setting, and coworking seemed like a good option.  I initially looked at TPC because of the easy commute from West Seattle, and once I spent a little time working out of the space and got a chance to know the owners and other members I knew it was going to be a great fit for me.
