Speakers
Blake Wright
Project Manager, Raba Kistner, Inc.
Mr. Wright is responsible for managing geotechnical engineering projects throughout San Antonio and south/central Texas. He first worked for Raba Kistner, Inc., from 2007 to 2014 and recently re-joined the firm in March of 2018. Mr. Wright has extensive experience with all geotechnical engineering applications with a focus on rigid and flexible pavement design, soil stabilization, and pavement construction. Prior to re-joining Raba Kistner, Inc., he was a paving engineer at CEMEX where he was responsible for promoting the use of cement-based paving options which included unreinforced concrete pavements, roller-compacted concrete, cement-stabilized soil and cement-treated base, and full-depth asphalt reclamation. On a daily basis he provided pavement designs, cost analyses, and other technical recommendations to public agencies, developers, consultants, and contractors. Mr. Wright has a bachelor of arts degree in Psychology from Texas A&M University and both bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Civil Engineering from the University of Texas at San Antonio.
Corey Zollinger
