16 Dec 2009

Stateline, NV – Design Workshop has promoted Coleen Shade and Eric Roverud to Associate. The announcement of the new promotions was a result of peer and management recognition of ongoing achievement and leadership capability among the selected candidates.

Coleen has served as a planner for Design Workshop for 2 years. Despite being very new to the Tahoe office, Coleen stepped up and became the Operations Manager shortly after her arrival in 2007. She is committed to establishing and leading the Tahoe office as the “go-to firm” in the region. She is currently leading the Plumas County General Plan Update project and Lassen/Modoc counties Rails to Trails project.

Eric joined the firm in 2004 after earning his Masters Degree in landscape architecture from the University of Minnesota. He's been Tahoe's DW Legacy Design® representative for the last two years, personally ensuring all Tahoe projects are of the highest quality. Eric works on projects ranging from small-scale resort design to statewide transportation planning. Most notably, he has been working on the Centennial Plaza and 4th Street Station transit centers in Washoe County and was a part of the team for the award-winning project, NDOT Landscape and Aesthetics Corridor Plans.
