Bio
Mark Kendall
Robins thoughtfulness, cooperative nature and commitment to accomplishing positive outcomes enables her to be one of those subtle situational leaders that gets the right things done. Her ability to quickly grasp technical, policy and interest group complexities and then craft clarity, direction and allignment is an outstanding talent. I highly reccomend Robin as a team player that is smart, highly principaled and fun to work with.
Sven Anderson
Robin is an outstanding employee - she is very intelligent, self motivated, hard-working, a quick learner and she has impeccable integrity. Robin was originally hired to coordinate a signficant stakeholders group and while she has done some of that, mostly the group has been on hiatus for reasons beyond her control. Subsequently, Robin has stepped-up to take on additional responsibilities and to learn new tasks. She has become an agency expert on working with the Oregon Public Utilities Commission and the Bonneville Power Administration. She has also developed significant knowledge and expertise on wind energy issues; particularly related to wildlife impacts. Robin has also done significant work around sustainability issues for the Oregon Department of Energy and currently serves as the agency representative on a statewide network of sustainability coordinators.
