A yearly roundup of bright, innovative, and young Albertans once again features APEGA Members. The Top 40 Under 40 includes one Member on the Calgary Avenue magazine list and one on the Edmonton Avenue magazine list. Edmonton’s Kairi Pawlick, P.Eng. , a senior associate with Stantec , was honoured for her countless volunteer engagements across the city. As well as co-chairing NextGen, an organization that gives a voice to young Ed- montonians helping shape their city, she volunteers with APEGA, engaging with first-year engineering students through our Outreach program . Ms. Pawlick also mentors through Stantec’s Emerging Leaders program. Volunteering for groups like NextGen is “very different from the workplace,” Ms. Pawlick told the magazine. “In community work, you’re working with
people of different backgrounds, ages, and experiences towards a common vision. It’s the bigger picture.” In Calgary, Fabiola MacIntyre, P.Eng. , earned a place on the list for her work as the Project Manager for Calgary’s largest infrastructure project, the Green Line LRT. The multi-billion-dollar project will add 40 kilo metres of track to the existing 59-kilometre LRT system. Expected to make 90,000 to 140,000 trips per day, the line will serve about 41 million passengers annually. Ms. MacIntyre calls the project essential to Calgary’s future. “We are now a city of more than a million people — we need to think about what we will need as a city of two million people. Projects like this, they’re not just about what kind of city you want to live in, but what kind of city you want your children to live in.”
