Henry is a Senior Principal based in Washington with more than 34 years of experience leading geotechnical engineering for flood-control projects and site redevelopment for public and private clients in the United States Pacific Northwest. Counties, cities, and public utility clients rely on Henry’s geotechnical expertise on levee setbacks and dam removal projects to help reduce flooding, restore habitat and fish passage, and bring aging infrastructure up to current engineering standards.
He also manages multiyear, multidisciplinary contracts for the assessment, maintenance, and improvement of environmental monitoring and control systems for closed landfills. He conducts geotechnical evaluations, designs landfill liner and closure systems, and he handles geotechnical engineering of solid waste transfer stations and resource recovery facilities.
As a past president of the American Society of Civil Engineers Seattle Section, Henry facilitated professional development opportunities, supported mentoring programs, and organized speakers. Henry has been a member of the ASCE since joining the student chapter more than 30 years ago and has served on several committees.
