Three Questions With…Matt Helmer

This month we congratulate Matt Helmer on his 25^th anniversary with Hixson! Matt, a Project Engineer in Hixson’s Civil Engineering department, recently answered three questions for us:

1. Why have you chosen to stay at Hixson for so long?

Mainly my fellow associates. It is a lot of fun working with the people here and Hixson provides a great work-life balance, they make it easy to go to work everyday. With being there so long it seems like an extended family especially with other long time associates whose personal families have gotten to know each other’s children and spouses through picnics and end of year parties.  Everyone is willing to help out and work together to execute a successful project.

2. What is your favorite part of your day-to-day work?

Being challenged. With working in the Civil Engineering department, no two sites are the same, so it is nice to always being doing something different and it makes the job a little more personable having to design for each site.

3. Tell us a favorite line from a movie?

From O Brother, Where Art Thou: “Well, ain’t this place a geographical oddity, two weeks from everywhere!”

Congratulations Matt!
