When not globetrotting for his side job as International President of ITE, Michael and his black lab, Loki, like to run, fish, and watch his kids play volleyball & baseball. Words to live by: “If everything seems under control, you’re just not going fast enough.” –Mario Andretti

“Remember to always be yourself. Unless you suck.” Luckily for us, Danielle can very much be herself. As our first-ever female stock holder, PTOE, and mom to 2 kiddos and one doggo, she excels at most things. Especially tailgating at Bobcat football games.

Following in the footsteps of an amazing role model, mentor (& father), Erling Tufte, John always knew he was going to be a Civil Engineer. He started his career at Sanderson Stewart (back when it was called Engineering, Inc.) and – after receiving his masters and more than a little project experience – he is back once again. John, along with his golden retriever, Leo, is now managing the Colorado region for SS and looking forward to a lot more experiences. “Get ‘er done!”

Lucky for us and the communities he works in, DJ chose transportation engineering over meteorology in college.  Still a tornado chaser at heart, DJ and his dogs Dakota and Mazey, now enjoy hunting safer things like ducks and geese.

Bob has been the North Star of Sanderson Stewart since the beginning. His earnest, cowboy way of getting things done, along with his strong sense of right and wrong have helped to create a great company. And a really rad ’56 suburban we like to call Old Blue.

Katie specializes in all things DOT, and is our resident Right of Way guru. Born and raised in Billings, Katie loves spending time with her family on the fairways at Yellowstone Country Club. She is an avid Montana State Bobcats fan and legend has it that even her Koi wear blue & gold on game day.

Bryan enjoys solving problems and creating lasting memories. Which is why he chose to be an engineer AND a professional photographer. With his family and cat, Baxter, he lives by the saying: “Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn.” No challenge is too daunting. Not even being the crazy cat person in a dog-filled office.

Inspiration can be found everywhere-Vikings games, driving, or walking the pups, Poppy & Thor on the beach. Keeping your eyes and mind open encourages more creative solutions, no matter where you are. “Lake hair, don’t care.”

“Work for a cause, not for applause.” It couldn’t sum up Amy’s passion to improve people’s lives better. The clean freak in Amy is compelled to fix all our issues and tidy her house. Works out well for her two pups, Macy and Frankie, too.

Growing up just outside of Rocky Mountain National Park gave Lauren a unique perspective on the built environment and its integration with nature. She balances her love of outdoor activities and her fascination with the complexities of city growth to create great, active communities. She also balances on a unicycle, but that’s a story for another day.

Charles started his career with Sanderson Stewart in Bozeman before moving to Colorado in the early 2000s. Before that? Well you might have to ask him about his rock ‘n roll days and sound engineering skills. Seriously impressive!

When Joey isn’t working to create enduring communities at Sanderson Stewart, you can usually find him outside, enjoying Montana’s many splendors. As an avid hunter and new dad, Joey knows the importance of taking care of our communities, and all of nature’s bounty for years to come.

You’d be hard pressed to find a bigger MSU Bobcats fan than Curtis. When he’s not cheering on his beloved Cats (or Las Vegas Raiders), you’ll likely find him hanging out with his wife and daughters or driving kids to school on the neighborhood bus!

Cora is a member of the firm’s Branding Studio and leads the firm’s bid/proposal process. As a CSTP focused on the pursuit of Enduring Community Design and an active community volunteer, Cora is very inspired by Eleanor Roosevelt who once said, “Success must include two things: the development of an individual to his utmost potentiality and a contribution of some kind to one’s world.”

When Tessa isn’t sharing her road design expertise on DOT-focused projects, you are likely to find her outdoors with her family (and pup!) enjoying all of the fun that Montana has to offer!
