Siggi Finnsson came the United States from his native Iceland over 30 years ago to earn an engineering graduate degree. He did that and so much more. And along the way, he has helped to lift horizontal directional drilling (HDD) into the construction industry's lexicon, as well as catapult the technology, in most cases, as the preferred method of construction. Over the course of the last 25 years, Siggi has tirelessly trained and educated the HDD community. Whether on the road for Digital Control Inc. (DCI) or presenting at NASTT or HDD Academy educational sessions, Siggi's goal is to make HDD contractors better at what they do. He has also played a key role in helping to bring DCI's locating systems to market with his input and carrying the voices of the contractors in the field back to the engineers' proverbial drawing table. For all of these contributions, as well as many more, Siggi Finnsson is the 2020 Trenchless Technology Person of the Year.
