Now back designing wastewater infrastructure, Jack enjoys biking to work and getting out to go climbing or skiing on the weekends.

James  is a strict minimalist. In fact, there is only one material possession he would desire – a skateable, left-hand kidney bean swimming pool. And the pool would hold a ’62 SD Catalina, a good stereo and a well-curated record collection, tools, pinball machines, and some cool furniture – perhaps a speaker chair.

Jane is passionate about promoting civil engineering as a career path, especially for non-traditional engineers. She is just as likely to talk to you about low-bid contract law as botany. Jane splits her recreational time between backpacking in the summer with her kids, and baking in the winter.

We want to acknowledge here the passing of Mike Conway, in the fall of 2019. He is sorely missed. Mike worked for us since 2007, and had over 40 years of experience working in project management and design for us and other engineering firms. Although not a licensed engineer, he was a force of nature and problem solver. For 16 years, Mike served as the City of Washougal’s Public Works Director. In this position he ensured that infrastructure was in place for the future, during one of the largest growth spurts in the City’s history.
We are proud to have worked with Mike Conway.
