She has been writing local, regional, state and federal grant applications for roadway and trail projects since 2001 and has secured approximately $100 million dollars in funding for her clients or the agency (Anoka County) she has worked for. Jack has played a wide variety of roles in the grant process, from preparing grants from start to finish, to completing technically analyses and writing, to reviewing and guiding the development of grants written by others and to coordinating with multiple agencies to ensure that everyone agrees on what the project includes and what funding resources should be pursued. As project manager, Jack will ensure that deliverables are produced in a timely manner, that the quality of work meets city and county expectations, and that team members are working closely with one another. Jack understands what the City of Lino Lakes and Anoka County need for deliverables, and will work with Andy to ensure the local context is provided in the application.

This broad background has helped him utilize a comprehensive approach in identifying potential impacts and resolving issues throughout the course of a project. His responsibilities have included project management, public involvement, grant writing, environmental documentation, and transportation planning. Prior to joining WSB, Andy served as a Senior Planner for the Scott County Highway Department. While working at Scott County, Andy successfully prepared applications through the past three rounds of the Regional Solicitation, including a four -mile trail project in the city of Shakopee and a new interchange on US Highway 169 at Trunk Highway 41/CSAH 78. Along with these efforts, Andy has participated in the Metropolitan Council Regional Solicitation scoring committee process, so he understands what information is important to reviewers.
