Hi, my name is Adam, and for the last several years, I have created a web series about my love of civil engineering, transportation infrastructure, and anything related to hydropower.
Along the way, I have found thousands of others who share my passion and take the time to engage with the content.
My goal is simple: to bring fact-based educational content on the often-overlooked subject matter. To help people see the big picture of how our built environment works by calling attention to the details.

Great explainer about the challenges of using intermittent renewables (like wind and solar) with dispatchable power (like hydro) on the same grid.

NEW LONG FORM VIDEO COMING! I can't wait to show you what we've been working on for the past few months. Back in January, we filmed an in-depth walkthrough of Lower Granite Dam and explored some of the lesser-known aspects of the dam structure and operations. The full video drops tomorrow, Friday March 23rd.

IT'S READY! The final edit has been sent to the encoder and will be posted on YouTube at 8:00pm PST on Wednesday night. I can't wait for you to see this project - it's the culmination of several months of travel and hard work from the entire team.

I've been chained to my editing station for days on this new video. It's over 20 minutes long, and I think you guys are going to like the results. Look for "What We Get Wrong About the Snake River Dams" later this week!
