Shawn A. Graham, PE

President

As the founder of Rise Structural Group, I bring over two decades of experience in structural design and project management, supported by a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering from Pennsylvania State University. Throughout my career, I have served as the Engineer-of-Record for numerous projects across various states, encompassing a wide range of market sectors and building types, including office, retail, parking, mixed-use, educational, residential, renovations, and adaptive reuse.

My journey as a structural engineer has been driven by a passion for transforming creative ideas into tangible reality, and that passion continues to motivate me every day. I value integrity, dependability, and hard work, and I believe in striking a balance between giving it my all at work and enjoying life outside of it. When I'm not tackling engineering challenges, you can find me on the ice playing ice hockey, coaching my daughter's softball teams, or spending quality time with my family.

At Rise Structural Group, we are committed to delivering excellent service while fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented working environment. Our mission is to assist our clients in achieving their goals by providing innovative and cost-effective structural solutions. To stay at the forefront of the industry, we actively embrace advancements in structural systems, technology, and Building Information Modeling (BIM).

As the leader of our company, I oversee the overall engineering operations, quality control, strategic planning, and business development. My vision is to cultivate a team of passionate professionals who are dedicated to their craft and work together to deliver outstanding results for our clients. We recognize that every project is unique, and from the outset, we invest time in understanding our clients' objectives. This enables us to tailor solutions that not only meet but exceed expectations, allowing creativity to flourish throughout the process.

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working on notable projects that have pushed the boundaries of structural engineering. From landmark office buildings to community developments to custom residences, each project has contributed to my expertise and shaped my approach to delivering exceptional results.
