Boulé has more than 35 years of experience in the military and private sector, with a background in programming, planning, and engineering major infrastructure and facility projects, including those designed to combat flooding and other hazards.

“The future of New York City is bright as we welcome in Mayor Eric Adams,” says Boulé. “I am humbled at the opportunity to support his team during this critical time transitioning into office to improve the quality of life of the communities that make up the fabric of this great city.”

Boulé holds two master’s degrees from Stanford University in environmental fluid mechanics and hydrology (1996), and structural engineering (1995), and a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from the United States Military Academy at West Point (1986). He is the president of the NYC Post of the Society of American Military Engineers and vice chairman of the NYC-based Waterfront Alliance.
