Alvaro Lopez Jr.
At 26 years old, Alvaro Lopez, Jr., a project manager of Texas-based
Longview Bridge and Road, has overseen several large road and bridge projects in the Lone Star State, but the father of two soon to be three aims to have a lasting impact in this field. I have been fortunate to be part of this highway heavy civil field since 2015, he said. I have worked with amazing superiors and managers from national top companies like Kiewit, Jacobs and Webber in which I have attained very valuable experience, but with this complex industry you must constantly continue to expand your knowledge. In this industry, you constantly get exposed to changing circumstances and new challenges, so to this day, I strive to learn new practices, explore different methodologies and implement value engineering every day.
