OLIVER ASIS

A Transportation Engineer working for the California Department of Transportation over 10 years. Oliver says he has the dream job he wanted since he was in the 6th grade. He has loved everything transportation since he was young. He built freeways in his room as a kid and used to pretend he was a traffic reporter. Currently studying for his Professional Engineering license, he has the goal of one day helping improve transportation for all of California. It is his dream to see a transportation system that integrates various modes of transport from bikes, buses, cars, to train. A great transportation system serves all commuters equally. One of his claims to fame is getting to talk to Roman Mars from 99 Percent Invisible about Public Works.

When he is not working on transportation solutions, he is out and about photographing the world. Oliver is also an award winning professional photographer. Specializing in Wedding, Landscape, and Architectural photography, he has won awards from the Professional Photographers of San Diego County and won both the Judges and People’s Choice from Adobe’s CreativeJam. He is currently on a personal quest to visit and photograph all 61 US national parks.
