\"Casey<\/p>\n

\n

I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Growing up in a small Alabama town, Casey Robinson Troutman had to pick her football allegiance from a young age. After choosing Auburn University in the third grade, she visited Auburn for the Minority Introduction to Engineering (MITE) program while in high school, and her decision was confirmed.<\/p>\n

\u201cMITE exposed me to the various engineering disciplines, and I learned the value and reward that pursuing a technical degree could offer. I liked civil engineering because of the diversity of the degree,\u201d she said. \u201cYou can do so many different things with civil engineering.\u201d<\/p>\n

Robinson Troutman, \u201900 and \u201903 civil engineering, got involved in several campus organizations, including the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), during her time as a student, where she found valuable mentorship.<\/p>\n

\u201cNSBE\u2019s mission, \u2018to increase the number of culturally responsible Black engineers who excel academically, succeed professionally and positively impact the community\u2019 was instilled in me. Having access to upperclassmen who could share their insights was helpful,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

As a manager at Georgia Power, Robinson Troutman now uses the skill set she developed at Auburn University to implement strategic initiatives, problem-solve, build relationships and develop others.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think having an Auburn Engineering degree matters,\u201d she said. \u201cMany people invested in me and that\u2019s why I believe in Auburn and love it. That is why my husband, Terry, and I give back to Auburn financially and why I serve on advisory boards in the College of Engineering; it\u2019s about investing in others and leaving a legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
