March marks National Engineering Month, an annual campaign designed to celebrate the role engineers play in society, as well spark an interest in the next generation of engineers.
Halle Jones Capers decided this is a great time to start her own business.
Capers, with a strong background in civil engineering and long active in Akron-area community organizations and events, just formed Halle s Engineering & Design LLC. It s the first minority female-owned firm of its kind in Akron. ( First has been a theme in her life.)
She of course wants her fledgling civil engineering consulting business, which has offices in Akron, to succeed. She also wants to serve as an example and inspiration to other people of color.
I want more Halles. I want more Halles in the room, Capers said.
