Introducing Devon James

Special Projects – Seattle, WA

I'm originally from Long Island, NY, but moved to WA in 2017 to pursue a career in education. I received my BA in English from Alfred University, and my Master's in Education from the University of Washington. After 4 years of teaching 6th grade math and science, I decided to dig into my new toolbox of skills and branch out into the corporate world. I am so excited to be working as a Project Coordinator with KPFF. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my Rottweiler Lexi, cooking and hiking.

Introducing Joey Zhou EIT

Special Projects – Seattle, WA

I was born and raised in Guangzhou, China prior to moving to Lynnwood, WA just before high school. After that, I got a BS in civil engineering from University of Washington. Lately I've been spending my free time aerial dancing and learning circus arts, and dabbling in longboarding and roller skating. I like cities, public transportation, wildlife, rain forest, and salmon (to eat and to design passage for)!
