Staff Spotlight: Kate Nelson

IVGID was truly excited to have Kate Nelson join the District as the Engineering Manager this past May. 

Kate was born and raised in Reno and is excited to work in one of the most beautiful places on earth. She graduated from the University of Nevada, Reno with a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering, with a minor in Chemistry. She is both a licensed Civil Engineer and State Water Rights Surveyor. Kate has over 22 years of experience in water and wastewater design and project management.

Kate and her husband Mike enjoy spending time outdoors skiing, fishing, and camping. They have raised three boys who have set up their families relatively close to Reno. Kate is looking forward to teaching her grandchildren to ski at Diamond Peak this year.
