CEA - Intern, College, and FE Tips with Jed-Jason Ramos

CEA - Intern, College, and FE Tips with Jed-Jason Ramos

Today’s guest is Jed-Jason Ramos, who has recently received the position of project engineer with the Walsh Group, one of the largest builders in North America, after being an intern at this very same company twice, in 2018 and 2019. Born in Hawaii, raised in Southern California, he earned his degree from Brigham Young University-Idaho. Jed has some good insights to share with both those who are still in civil engineering school and those who are already practicing it.

This interview features insights about how he uses Simon Sinek’s theory of “The Why” to approach any task he encounters in life, big and small, how a book written by the curator of TED, Chris Anderson, helps him to better connect with people, and how the Rubber Duck Method can help people solve problems. This is a great episode for literally anyone. Check this out and don’t forget to visit our home base for all things civil engineering, whether it’s related to the FE, PE, or practice materials.
