Meet Jeremy Henault – Bridge Intern & Phenomenal Football Player
What drew you to Hoyle Tanner?
I was looking for a summer internship opportunity, specifically in structural engineering. I had spoken with one of my professors at school, asking about engineering firms in the New Hampshire area. He had lots of good things to say about Hoyle Tanner and their bridge team. After that conversation, I decided to apply and reach out.
What’s something invaluable you’ve learned here?
The importance of collaboration and teamwork. Everyone at Hoyle Tanner wants to see each other grow and thrive in their careers. Being new to the company, questions are always surfacing. The rest of the team have shown that they are more than willing to take time throughout their day to help as much as they can.
What’s the coolest thing you are working on & why?
I was fortunate enough to tag along with some other team members to Lyndon, Vermont for a covered bridge inspection. Being able to observe different components of the timber bridge was fascinating. I’ve always been a hands-on learner, so having the opportunity to see how the bridge is connected and supported was a great learning experience.
What’s the best thing that’s happened to you recently (this week, this month, this year)?
I recently got into golf a couple years ago and have been trying to get better. Earlier this summer I made my first birdie which was a cool accomplishment.
How many different states have you lived in?
I’ve lived in New Hampshire my whole life but go to college in Vermont.
If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be?
Steak and potatoes with cooked broccoli.
What kind of pet do you have & how did you choose to name it?
I have a dog named Rebel. When we adopted him, his original name was Rubble but my family thought Rebel sounded better.
What are three things still left on your bucket list?
- Snowboarding in Washington State
- Flying a plane
- Hiking the 48 4,000 footers in NH
What characteristic do you admire most in others?
I admire people who are hardworking and respectful.
What did you want to be when you were growing up?
I wanted to be an architect and be able to design/build my own house. Luckily, I still have the opportunity to do so. Throughout school, I realized that I enjoy math and solving problems more than creating drawings, so I pursued civil engineering.
