"Don't be afraid of failure. Learn from your mistakes

and keep working hard to achieve your goals."

Recently, several Keller Engineers employees were discussing which employee was the tallest and shortest in height. After some deliberation and research, it was determined that our Business Development Coordinator, Britta Corle, is the shortest, coming in at 4' 11" and Troy Luchau, Bridge Designer & Inspector is the tallest at 6' 6". Coincidentally, both employees are University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown alumni!

Congratulations Britta & Troy!!
