Robeson joined Profile Products in 2007, bringing more than 10 years of experience in hydraulics and the erosion and sediment control industry. His experience includes developing, testing and evaluating many erosion control systems, site specific design and consultation, design and selection software development and active involvement in industry organizations, including ASTM, ECTC, IECA and ASCE.


Constantine serves as a market development manager for Profile, representing the Southeast and parts of the Great Lakes region. His background includes work at SI Corporation and Northwest Linings, focusing on geotextiles and rolled erosion control products.
