Brandy Huston Email & Phone Number

I look at communities holistically and can offer a unique perspective to identify opportunities for future strategic improvements. I have a broad background in urban planning, architectural design, transportation, and the environment. I like to find ways of doing things that have never been done before, or ways of doing things that are done every day better than ever before. My goal is to contribute to building a better future for all people by enhancing the places they live, work, and play. I'm always interested in exchanging ideas, so please email me at brandy.t.huston@gmail.com or connect if you'd like to start a dialog. I've worked in environmental roles at the Texas Department of Transportation for over 15 years. What started as a part-time, college job to assist with drafting turned into a long-term career with many twists and turns. I was a general environmental project manager, then specialized in social and economic analyses. I developed expertise in analyzing how transportation projects influence land use and development, how their impacts spread out in time and distance, and how they contribute to the overall status of the resources they affect (indirect and cumulative impacts, in NEPA-speak). I analyzed legislative proposals and new regulatory requirements and found ways to implement them. I participated in research projects and got involved in national research initiatives. Eventually, I focused on overall environmental policy and process improvement. I developed concepts, led teams, and managed projects to incorporate new requirements, identify opportunities for improvements, and develop and implement initiatives intended to make the environmental process more efficient and effective. Now, I've returned to my previous areas of expertise with the intent of bringing my experience in improvement and innovation to projects affecting our communities.
