Logan Ebner

“My most meaningful experience during my internship was a site visit to LA Metro’s Division 20 subway yard. Being able to see rail vehicles up close and learning from the professionals who maintain them assured me that I want to have a career at the intersection of public transit and engineering.”
Oliver Silverio
Mechanical Engineering Intern, Los Angeles, LA
“The most meaningful lesson I have learned during my internship is the realization that the continuous involvement of the engineer throughout a project is crucial to the efficiency and success of that project. This realization has reshaped my understanding of the engineer’s role, seeing them not only as a designer and problem solver but also as a leader and coordinator.”
Theodore Frigillana
