Sjostedt takes over for PND Vice President Dick Somerville, who has worked the firm for more than thirty-six years and has managed the Juneau location since 1996. Somerville continues to work at PND to support Sjostedt while Somerville transitions into retirement.
Sjostedt, who grew up in Cordova, is approaching his 13th anniversary at PND, all from the Juneau office. He specializes in civil and geotechnical engineering. Prior to joining PND, Sjostedt worked for five years in the construction industry.
