What our Clients are Saying
“Wade is perhaps one of the most tenacious professionals I've worked with in my 32-year career. He approaches his work and professional endeavours with earnest, first obtaining a grasp of the overall project requirements, and then systematically addressing and resolving each issue. This has proven exceptionally valuable in today's environment, especially with the ever increasing list of requirements from state, local and municipal agencies. When Wade was aboard our team, I never had to worry ... he was consistently on top of every issue until it was resolved. I'd hire him without question for any project in the Pacific Northwest”
