Tam Kutzmark

As a versatile planning professional, I have an expertise in community based planning, management, and engagement, and a passion for enhancing quality of life through collaboration. I specialize in engaging stakeholders across public, private, civic, and institutional settings; promoting policies and programs that add value to quality of life; and building sustainable partnerships that achieve results. By linking "policy" and "technical," I bring an interdisciplinary approach to the work of communities and local governments who seek to build a better future. My background includes: • Urban Planning: Transit/transportation/mobility; environmental and open space planning; comprehensive/master planning; healthy/sustainable communities; emergency preparedness • Public Policy: Engaging stakeholders across public, private, and institutional settings; fostering intergovernmental relationships; coordinating communications/decision-making • Management Analysis: Strategic planning and implementation; using surveys, indicators, and other data to measure and communicate results; managing grants and consultants • Training/Facilitation: Designing/facilitating programs, workshops, and committees for government, civic, volunteer, and professional groups; reporting and presenting with clarity, energy, and impact
