摘要：	Happy New Year! New beginnings are springing up, and disruption is the theme. When ASCE Executive Director Tom Smith, CAE, ENV SP, EASCE, called me on a Friday in June 2021 to tell me I won the Society's presidential election, he said that my year as president-elect would fly by. So I told him to take the weekend off and we'd hit the ground running on Monday. And that's what happened. We're working hard to solve our profession's most pressing challenges. And elected officials, industry leaders across all sectors, and the media are noticing! When the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act - also called die bipartisan infrastructure law - was passed, there was champagne on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. But Sunday brought the hangover: the realization that we needed to deliver! After more than two decades of advocating for increased federal investment, we got it. So we had to pivot. We needed to focus on implementation and working with the federal government to streamline die entire process. We went to work advocating for changes in delivery, which led to my appointment to serve on President Joe Biden's National Infrastructure Advisory Council.
