Katie has more than a decade of experience across various aspects of tailings management, including shallow and deep foundation design, slope stability and embankment analysis, and infrastructure advocacy. Her expertise includes in-situ testing, soil design parameter modeling, and seepage analysis. She has managed geotechnical aspects of tailings storage facilities and provided technical project support for public and private critical facilities throughout the U.S. This variation in project nature and geologic setting has exposed her to design practices in deep soft soils, shallow bedrock, expansive soils and bedrock, and seismic conditions.
