Weāre excited to announce two new additions to our Oregon officeāHannah Faires joins us as a Senior Engagement Manager and Katie Nelson Stone joins us as an Engagement Manager!
Bringing 12 years of experience, Hannah is a skilled project manager who understands how to coordinate stakeholders and integrate community engagement into project planning and implementation. She knows how to deliver public-sector projects across transportation, infrastructure, and environmental programs, and has managed complex, multi-phase initiatives along with overseeing multidisciplinary teams, consultants, and contracts through planning, design, and construction. In her free time, she prefers to explore cities on foot and spend time with her partner and their two dogs!
Katie has 10 years of experience leading community engagement initiatives for public agencies, private organizations, and community-based projects. She specializes in developing and implementing engagement strategies that foster meaningful participation from community members, stakeholders, and partner organizations, and has experience planning and facilitating meetings, workshops, and public events. She has supported community engagement and strategic planning efforts across Oregon and Southwest Washington, including strategic action plans, transportation planning projects, utility and sewer system plans, and other community-focused initiatives. When not at work, she can be found camping with her dogs, reading with her cats, or enjoying a scary movie!
