Wystan Carswell, Ph.D., P.E.

Senior Technical Expert, Geotechnical Engineer

Wystan Carswell is a geo-structural engineer specializing in soil-structure interaction problems. With graduate degrees in structural and geotechnical engineering, much of her work at Haley & Aldrich focuses on excavation support system design and analysis of deep excavations. She routinely collaborates with project teams and abutting property owners to reduce the risk associated with ground movements, helping owners understand and navigate the design challenges associated with founding structures in complex design environments.

With more than 10 years of experience, Wystan brings a practical, collaborative approach to multi-faceted engineering challenges. She leads technical teams in developing right-sized solutions for projects and confirming design efficacy from concept through construction. Clients value Wystan’s ability to explain technical considerations clearly and translate them into actionable decisions.
