“I’ve spent my entire 35-year career in the New York/New Jersey marketplace and our firm has developed great relationships with clients and other engineering firms,” said Robert Medina, P.E., Medina president and now senior vice president of TYLI. “The specialties that T.Y. Lin International brings combined with our knowledge of agencies, engineers, and contractors in the East Region will create tremendous opportunities for partnering and strategic alliances.”
