Washington is an equity and government affairs expert who brings knowledge in equity public policy, transit planning, government relations, environmental justice, public engagement, and communication strategies. Working in HDR’s Denver office, he will help clients develop actionable equity policies that provide real-world benefits to their communities.
“I’m excited to work with a broad range of clients in bringing their equity policies to life,” Washington said. “I enjoy helping people know where they can be the most effective in promoting equity and achieving their transportation vision for their community.”
Washington comes to HDR from the office of U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado, where he was the Deputy State Director and Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
Washington developed a framework to incorporate equity into all of the senator’s policies — a first for the U.S. Senate. Previously, Washington served as the Transit Equity Manager for the Regional Transportation District in Denver.
