Tyler has been with Treasure Valley Engineers, Inc. for a number of years starting in 2001 as a high school intern. Since then, Tyler has graduated from the University of Idaho with a B.S. Degree in Civil Engineering with special emphasis in Structural Engineering, became a registered Engineer-in-Training in Idaho and a licensed Professional Engineer in California.

Tyler has had his hand in everything from various civil/structural projects, computer-aided drafting, surveying services, IT support, and website design/maintenance.

Tyler’s favorite projects are: Gramercy with Erstad Architects and the design of a concrete vault rack for Memorial Monuments. Gramercy, a four-building commercial development, required the design of numerous steel moment frames and creative design for a unique barrel entryway.

The concrete vault rack Tyler designed holds six rows of concrete burial vaults (approx. 4000 lbs each) stacked three high and three deep.  The challenge in the design was that it needed to be simple enough for “the common Joe” to install meaning 100% bolted connections. The fun part was that the design was up to the engineer and creativity lead to increased savings on steel and labor.
