Who is USKH?
Our Board of Directors says that we are a full service, multi-disciplined design and consulting firm. They are right (they usually are) but who we are is so much more that just our professions. You can peg us as architects, engineers (all types of engineers – civil, transportation, structural, mechanical, and electrical), land surveyors, planners, or environmental folks, but that doesn’t even begin to define us.
We are friends. We work with our hands. We like to run. We are artists and musicians. We like to laugh together, dream together. We garden. We are mothers. We are fathers. We are sisters, brothers, sons, and daughters. We fly planes. Some of us like fast cars. Some of us ride our bikes to work. We are passionate about good design. We ski. Or snowboard. Or ice skate. We like to give back as much as we get. We do yoga. We play softball. Some of us are gourmet chefs. Some of us always burn the chocolate chip cookies. We feel a responsibility to live as well as we can. We love dogs. And cats. We grow together. We play ping-pong. We play scrabble. We play Madden. We play the piano. And the guitar. (Okay, we like to play). Some of us are morning people. Some of us hit snooze six times every morning. We like work that improves our community. We vote. We fish (a lot). We climb mountains. We like to curl up with a good book. We drink too much coffee. Or maybe not enough. We are building a future together.

Misc:
Working at USKH.
On the surface, we might look like your average architecture and engineering firm. It’s what’s below the surface that sets us apart. Our company is invested in each and every employee’s well-being and success. To this end, we endeavor to make professional development opportunities available, actively search for ways to promote wellness while working, and ensure that each new employee has a mentor to count on for advice, feedback, and a coffee break every now and then. We are about a work life balance – considering that you will spend more time with us than many of your closest friends, we want to make sure that you are happy and that you like what you do. Life is too short to dread going to work. We get that. We LIVE that. We want you to live it, too.
