Client Services Manager/Associate VP, Carollo Engineers, Inc.

Cindy Pries grew up in eastern Iowa and attended Iowa State University, initially aspiring to become a veterinarian. After volunteering at a local clinic, she discovered a stronger passion for problem-solving through engineering and shifted her focus to civil engineering. She and her husband, Jeff, have lived in Phoenix since 2008 and are grateful to call it home. Cindy has been a member of the AAWL League since 2023. She shares her life with two dogs—Uwe, a lively 7-month-old miniature schnauzer, and Oliver, a loyal 13-year-old dalmatian/poodle mix who was born deaf. Professionally, Cindy works at Carollo Engineers, where she provides water, wastewater, and reuse solutions to clients in the microelectronics and semiconductor industries. Outside of work, she enjoys hiking and exploring local breweries.
