Landau Associates

So proud to partner with Toys for Tots again this holiday season. For more than 10 years, Landau employee-owners have donated toys to help ensure more kids have something to open and enjoy this special time of year!

More milestone anniversaries! Ashleigh Walker, Daniel Joseph, and John Y. have all recently achieved 5 years at Landau. Hiring and retaining great people is a point of pride at Landau. Thank you all for embodying the employee-owner mindset and making Landau what it is: a vibrant community of growth!   #PassionPurposePossibility #WorkAnniversary

Milestone achieved! Carolyn Carlstrom reached 10 years at Landau this December. When she’s not coordinating stormwater sample recovery for Landau, Carolyn is an avid skier and rock climber. Her dedication, work ethic, and collaborative nature rubs off on clients and fellow employee-owners alike. Thank you, Carolyn!   #PassionPurposePossibility #WorkAnniversary

Season’s Greetings from the Pacific Northwest and the Gulf Coast: A Journey of Growth in 2024! As we celebrate this holiday season, we want to acknowledge a company journey that began in the beautiful Puget Sound community of Edmonds, Washington more than 40 years ago. As the demand for high-quality, collaborative, and responsive environmental consulting grew, so did Landau, leading us to add office locations throughout the Pacific Northwest. This year Landau took a strategic and geographic leap, hiring an outstanding group of air quality professionals in the Gulf Coast region, and opening an office in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This incredible journey showcases Landau’s vision as a vibrant, focused community of growth, blending rich traditions with new possibilities. Our story of success and growth could not have happened without all our talented and driven employee-owners, and of course, our valued clients and business partners. Cheers to a memorable 2024, and onward to 2025! Thank you for being part of our story.

Last year we lost a dear friend and coworker, Kris Hendrickson. However, we've not lost the legacy she left here at Landau Associates—a legacy of investment in the next generation of environmental professionals and in upholding the highest expectations for quality work. Landau Associates is pleased to honor Kris's legacy by sponsoring the Kristy J. Hendrickson Memorial Scholarship.    We invite you to join us in honoring Kris in one of two ways: 1) encouraging young women pursuing a degree in environmental engineering to apply for the Kristy J. Hendrickson Memorial Scholarship, or 2) making personal contributions to the scholarship fund.    The application window is open today, December 11, through January 15 for the 2025 scholarship award. Tax deductible contributions to the scholarship fund may be made anytime throughout the year. Links for donations and for applicants may be found on the Landau Associates website scholarship page. https://lnkd.in/g63_Nikz
