Associate Principal
Leslie Zerbe
PE, LEED AP
Building on her international career with Holmes, Leslie grows our Pacific Northwest leadership team. Prior to joining us in Portland, she practiced in our San Francisco and Auckland, New Zealand offices. Whether modernizing a massive government building or designing a festival installation, Leslie delivers spaces where occupants can safely work and play. Such unconventional structures require an unconventional level of camaraderie. Leslie pairs complementary skillsets from across the business for successful project delivery. Collaborators commend her adaptable mindset, resourcefulness, and trusty sense of humor (rumor has it she’s even done stand-up comedy).
Leslie’s spirit of adventure extends to her free time. Her sidekick Leroy, contender for the cutest dog at Holmes, joins her on many escapades. She’s always on the lookout for new trails and countries to explore. An avid foodie and restaurant explorer, Leslie also has a knack for making homemade bitters and cooking up dishes from her Chamorro heritage.
