About

Holly Strand

Born into an Air Force family, I had a varied geographic upbringing, living in and adapting to different landscapes and lifestyles in Colorado, Washington DC, and a village in Guam. What started as a challenge to adapt, eventually became a strength:
I can communicate effectively with people from a variety of backgrounds and expertise. That’s why for much of my career I represented a U.S. companies or organizations. To date I have carried out work assignments in over 30 countries.

I have always worked in areas that combine knowledge of nature, earth processes, and human behavior, e.g., natural hazards, resource management and conservation. I excel at representing information in words, maps, and video. I have worked with a wide variety of clients representing the private sector, academia, government agencies, and NGOs.

I live in Salt Lake City with a tenacious and creative teenager and a handsome Australian shepherd. Living here lets us indulge in our favorite activities: music, hiking, singing, and skiing.
