What an exciting day for Porterville College!

We were honored to celebrate the groundbreaking of the new Student Center alongside Kern Community College District, Porterville College, and the community. This welcoming new space will become the heart of campus, giving students a place to connect, recharge, and feel at home.

"This groundbreaking is more than a building. It's about creating a place that supports students, encourages engagement, and strengthens community connections. We're honored to be part of a project serving the community for generations to come." – Vivek Harris, Higher Education Studio Leader

Today, we're proud to celebrate a remarkable milestone for Liz Contreras: becoming a licensed architect.

Liz's story is one that resonates far beyond TETER. Raised in Fresno as the daughter of immigrant farmworkers, she learned early the value of hard work, perseverance, and service to others. She was the first in her family to attend college, earning her degree from UC Berkeley before returning home to help shape the communities that helped shape her.

“Over the past eight years at TETER, Liz has grown tremendously, helping school districts throughout the valley create facilities that support students, teachers, and communities. Her commitment extends beyond her work, whether leading community outreach efforts, supporting families in need, or mentoring others, Liz consistently leads through service.” - Robert Thornton

Fewer than 3% of licensed architects are Latinas, making this achievement even more significant. As Liz shared in her own words, becoming "Arquitecta Contreras" represents years of sacrifice, determination, and support from those who believed in her.

Today, we celebrate not only her accomplishment, but what it represents for future generations across the Central Valley.

The Central Valley should be proud. We certainly are.

Congratulations, Liz, on this well-earned achievement!

Congratulations to our employee-owners who’ve achieved 100% vesting in TETER's Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).!

This milestone reflects years of serving clients, supporting teammates, solving challenges, and building a stronger TETER. Every generation inherits something valuable. The true opportunity is not just to preserve it, but to make it better. As markets evolve, clients' needs change, and professions advance, TETER's employee-owners continue to move our firm forward with purpose.

Congratulations to everyone who reached this 100% vesting milestone. Thank you for your dedication and for the legacy you're creating for future generations.

The technology may be the centerpiece, but successful healthcare design depends on the team behind it.

Principal Architect and Healthcare Business Unit Director Lee Avila led the design of this 1,550 SF PET/CT Imaging Suite at Kaiser Permanente Modesto. TETER’s integrated architecture, engineering, and interior design team coordinated advanced imaging equipment with the complex technical requirements of the space.

That close collaboration helped create an environment that supports efficient clinical operations, clear patient flow, safety, and comfort. From engineering systems and equipment coordination to finishes and the overall patient experience, each discipline played an integral role in the final design.

This project reflects the strength of our healthcare team and the value of bringing architecture, engineering, and interior design together from the start.

Bill Craig is July’s Employee-Owner of the Month

Bill consistently celebrates the efforts of others at every level, ensuring their contributions are seen and appreciated. His generosity as a mentor, his willingness to share knowledge, and his steady support have a meaningful impact on TETER’s Healthcare Studio. Bill adapts to project needs in a thoughtful and consistent way as he leads people and projects forward.”

What do these exceptional projects all have in common?

Behind each of these projects are talented TETER women whose expertise played a vital role in shaping its mechanical, electrical, and structural design.

On International Women in Engineering Day, we celebrate the women whose incredible engineering and design skills contribute to projects across every market sector.

Their creativity, technical excellence, and dedication help design MEPS building systems that improve lives.
