Meet YOUR Nevada Board: Executive Director, Patty Mamola, PE

In 2010, Nevada was still reeling from the effects of the 2007 economic recession that plagued the United States. With unemployment rates at an alarming 14.5%, then-governor Brian Sandoval recognized the need for a proactive approach to improving the economy for the people of Nevada.

The future of professional land surveying is changing quickly due to technology innovations that are increasing at an exponential rate. As this trend will undoubtedly continue, current and future professionals should be aware of these changes and what they mean for their career tracks.

Because professional engineers are held to the highest standards in understanding and executing the principles of engineering, we take licensure very seriously.
