Andrea N. Martinez, P.E., CFM
Andrea Martinez, P.E., CFM, a project manager for PBS&J in Tampa, Florida, focuses on stormwater and large watershed projects throughout the state of Florida. This work includes leading the hydraulic/hydrologic modeling team in assisting existing flooding and water quality analysis, alternative analysis, and project recommendations. While every project is different, they usually result in capital improvements or measures to improve water quality and reduce flooding. This is especially important in Florida, where population growth and rainy seasons have led to many water quality and flooding issues.

Outside of her engineering work, Martinez tutors high school students in math, and is extremely active in the National Society of Professional Engineers where she currently serves as the Young Engineer Representative on the Board of Directors.
