Senior Land Use Advisor
Foster Graham Milstein & Calisher, LLP
Denver, CO
As a proud Denver native, Deirdre has watched the city meet challenges defined by exponential population growth and diverse development outcomes. Deirdre has spent the majority of her career in public service dedicated to equitable and sustainable outcomes fostered by collaboration between municipalities, neighborhoods, and development teams. Today, she proudly serves in the private sector as Senior Land Use and Infrastructure Advisor to clients and colleagues at Foster Graham Milstein & Calisher, LLP.
Passion for community-building and a sustainable future for all compelled her to join the fast-growing communities of Douglas County, Colorado and later the City of Denver where she mastered skills in facilitation, transit-oriented development planning and review, development agreements, grant management, natural resource and comprehensive planning. Most recently, she co-led Denver's Large-site Development Review team focused on identifying and planning for project infrastructure needs associated with catalytic sites throughout the city, maximizing opportunities for collaboration, communication and problem-solving across multiple city agencies and external partners.
She received her Bachelor's Degree in Sociology and Environmental Planning from Cornell College, and later earned her Masters Degree in Urban and Regional Planning from the University of Colorado at Denver.
