Stephanie Forman, PE
CEO / Project Manager
Stephanie serves as a project manager, design manager and lead civil engineer on transportation design projects.
Stephanie was born and raised in the Seattle area and now lives on the eastside with her husband Joel, two boys Cameron and Spencer, and pup Cali. After graduating from the University of Washington (go huskies!) she began her professional career working at a large civil engineering consulting firm and focused her work on transportation design solutions centered on Puget Sound mobility improvements. In March of 2019, Stephanie founded Forman Consulting Services where she continues to work on some of the Puget Sound’s most challenging projects.
Stephanie offers a wealth of experience and expertise in local agency, transit agency, and highway designs. Her experience includes conceptual to final design of roadways, highways, bus rapid transit, pedestrian, ADA, bicycle facilities, freight, and utility conflict analysis. Stephanie focuses on context sensitive design that meets the needs of varying stakeholders and multimodal users while balancing its interface with the roadway and adjacent land uses.
Each project is as unique as the client it represents, and Stephanie approaches each one with a fresh perspective and looks for innovative ways to increase cost effectiveness while providing a service that exceeds client’s expectations.

Kristi Helmer
Senior Consultant
Kristi applies her background in engineering and project management to assist in business and project operations.
After many years living and working on the west coast and in Europe, Kristi has returned to her roots in Chicago, where she and her husband are currently raising their three children. After graduating from the University of Illinois, she moved to the west coast and began her career serving in the U.S. Air Force as an acquisitions officer on Space Launch systems. With an engineering background, she was able to work on the highly technical systems engineering side and develop business experience in government acquisitions and contracting. In 2021, Kristi retired a 24-year tenure as a Reservist, where she helped to design and grow the U.S. Space Force. She expanded her experience by working as a systems engineering consultant on government Satellite programs for a large consulting firm.
