What do the first few years of your career really look like? They're exciting. They're challenging. And they're full of learning moments you never see coming.

In Part 1 of a two-part Legacy Listening series, our CEO, Dave McIvor, is joined by our Early Career Professional Champions Danny Fell, Cassie Wolf, and Grant Goodrich for a conversation about launching a career, building confidence, finding mentors, and navigating the transition from school to the workplace.

Drawing from both their own experiences and their work supporting Lamp Rynearson's Early Career Professionals, they share insights that can help emerging professionals thrive and remind seasoned professionals of the impact they can have along the way. One more tip: don't skip the ending. The final question brought out some of the best answers from the entire conversation!

Big things happening beneath Ward Parkway! 🚧

Lamp Rynearson is proud to support the City of Kansas City's D***s Branch Interceptor project, a relief sewer designed to reduce sanitary sewer overflows in the Blue River South Basin.

After completing the alternatives evaluation and design phases in 2025, this project has officially moved into construction. Our team is now providing construction phase engineering and Resident Project Representative services, working closely with KC Water to keep this high-traffic, utility-dense corridor moving safely and efficiently.

To minimize disruption to Ward Parkway and D***s Branch creek, crews are utilizing trenchless installation methods, keeping the neighborhood connected while the work gets done underground.

A project right in our backyard, literally. Proud to be part of protecting Kansas City's waterways for the long haul. 💧

We'll see you at the 2026 MML Annual Conference! 🎉

Mark your calendars for September 13-16 at Margaritaville Lake Resort in Osage Beach, MO. Stop by and say hello at Booth #91!

Don't miss our session on Tuesday, September 15 at 9:45 AM: "Project Management 101: Pitfalls and Successes in Municipal Projects," presented by Melanie Mummert, PE, and Chad Thompson, PE, ENV-SP.

We can't wait to reconnect with our municipal partners from across the state!

One year ago, Amy Augustyn joined the Lamp Rynearson team as our Client Development Manager, and what a year it has been. From behind-the-scenes access at Eppley Airfield’s Terminal Modernization Program (yes, including a ride in a cop car) to being accepted into Leadership Omaha, Amy has jumped in with both feet and never looked back.
We sat down with Amy to hear about what drew her to Lamp Rynearson, what she loves most about her role, and what she’s got her sights set on next.

Your next career conversation could start at a campus career fair. This fall, the Lamp Rynearson team is heading to campuses to meet students who are ready to turn curiosity, creativity, and problem-solving into meaningful work.
Stop by our booth to say hello, ask questions, and learn about internship and early-career opportunities in engineering, planning, landscape architecture, and surveying. Bring your résumé, your questions, and your best “what do you actually do all day?” question. We love that one.
We look forward to meeting you and hearing where you want to make an impact.

Chiefs Kingdom showed up! 🏈🔴 The Lamp Rynearson team had a blast at the 2026 Chiefs Kickoff Luncheon, hosted by the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce at the Loews Hotel.
