Q&A

What makes Burke different from other engineering firms?

Burke is different from other engineering firms because of the employees. We have a sense of pride and passion that we put into the work we do. When we deliver a product to a client, there was a considerable amount of thought and dedication put into it.

What is the most important takeaway for Burke clients?

The most important takeaway for Burke clients is the personal touch you get with our work. You get to meet the men and women working on your products.

If you could be any natural feature, what would it be?

I would be a lake, moderately side sandy shore bottom. There are many great activities and fun to be had.

Book or movie?

Movie, with little boys at home it’s hard to find time to read a book, and sometimes it hard to watch a movie all the way through.
