Kristin Skinner, P.E., PTOE
President

Prior to starting Priority Engineers, Inc. in April of 2011, Ms. Skinner acquired more than twelve years of experience with other local consulting firms and with the Missouri Department of Transportation.  Although her background has primarily been in traffic and transportation, she has also worked on commercial and residential site design projects, storm water studies, and sanitary sewer design and modification projects.  These experiences, along with four years with MoDOT and acting as an interim assistant City Engineer give her a well-rounded foundation from which to approach projects.  Whether using a traffic model to present a proposed improvement or answering questions at a public meeting, Kristin is comfortable discussing technical data with concerned citizens and informed professionals alike.

Jesse Skinner, P.E., PTOE
Senior Transportation Engineer

Prior to joining Priority Engineers, Inc. in April 2016, Mr. Skinner worked in the transportation engineering field for over 17 years for the Missouri Department of Transportation.   His rolls at MoDOT included serving in management rolls as the District Maintenance Engineer with responsibilities over operations within the 9-county region of the Kansas City District, and as an Area Engineer, providing leadership for his area and as the departmental liaison for elected officials, other stakeholders, and the media. Prior to holding management positions within MoDOT, Jesse enjoyed performing a number of technical roles within the department.

Jesse strongly believes in the principal of servant leadership and attributes his prior successes in part, due to his ability to listen to others, understand what is important to them and then come up with practical solutions that have often incorporated innovation.
