People are at the center of everything we do. Their expertise, creativity, and dedication form the foundation of our success—powering the exceptional service our clients have come to expect.

From engineers and planners to designers and business professionals, our people offer more than technical knowledge—they bring passion for their work, deep connections to their communities, and the drive to make a lasting impact. As leaders in their industries and active members of the places they live and serve, they care deeply about creating meaningful results.

Meet Some of Our Team

“Our Practice Builder model is the best! Getting the freedom to run your own business, be surrounded by awesome partners, and get rewarded for your contributions is truly unmatched in the industry.”

“I was honored as a “40 Under 40” professional from the Nashville Business Journal and both the Nashville and Franklin office teams organized a celebration. This act reflected our company culture and an environment that encourages continued excellence.”
Award-winning projects by award-winning people.

“At Texas A&M, I interned at a nuclear plant and climbed a 447-foot tower—twice! Clearly not afraid of heights, I later earned my private pilot’s license for a Cirrus SR20 after 18 months of flight training, studying, and plenty of weekend lessons. It was challenging but incredibly rewarding.”

“What many people don’t know about my role is how much of it extends beyond traditional project work. I’ve been deeply involved in pioneering partnerships between Kimley-Horn, Autodesk, and community colleges nationwide, helping develop civil engineering courses that will be offered free to students and educators.”

“I’ve been privileged to work on major infrastructure projects from the planning stage to final construction, and it’s been very rewarding to help shape these generational projects and seeing how they have reduced or eliminated recurring delays that people were experiencing.”

“It is so exciting every day to be working on projects that help expand the way that people can explore their cities, towns, regions, and states. Our team really cares about having vibrant and safe communities.”

“The opportunities for growth at Kimley-Horn are endless and impactful. Personal, professional, and financial growth are all real here.”

“I saw how much effort went into bringing in people from diverse backgrounds—not just in identity, but in thought and life experience. As a mom and a nontraditional intern, I was welcomed with open arms. Instead of being seen as different, I was valued for the unique perspective I bring.”

“Kimley-Horn means business when it comes to transparency. Answers about the company are readily accessible. Nothing is a secret. It’s so refreshing.”

“I might be the biggest baseball fan at Kimley-Horn. I’ve attended more than 50 games a year over the past few years and I make my own scorebook in AutoCAD to keep track of all the games I attend. One of my favorite site visits was doing traffic/crowd observation for the 2023 MLB All Star Game in Seattle.”

“If you are not a little uncomfortable, you are not growing. I strive to be a little uncomfortable in my variety of roles to help push myself to grow.”

“I remember when we were selected for a major project with a new client. I helped build the relationship, form the team, and write the proposal—with plenty of help along the way. It showed me just how collaborative and selfless people at Kimley-Horn are.”
