Matea Peterson, PE

Associate

Originally from Northern Nevada, Matea started her structural engineering career in New England. After a few years in the ice and snow, she moved back to the west. Over the past 15+ years in the Santa Rosa area, her work has ranged from high end custom residential and hospitality projects, to large multifamily and senior housing, to K-12 public education work.

Highlights:

    • Enjoys the collaborative process of design, working together toward solutions that best meet numerous project requirements.
    • Substantial experience across varied project sectors means understanding the common project needs and specialty needs, whether related to aesthetics, cost, constructability, technical issues, or schedule.
    • Interested to learn about the work and communication styles of different teams.

The question “What is important?” is one of the main keys to understanding what a successful project will look like, as well as how to chart the path there.
