Emily Ragsdale is a Principal Archaeologist and the Cultural Resources Management Division Manager, based in our Portland, Oregon office. She joined HRA in 2006 and has worked in nearly every level of HRA’s corporate hierarchy, starting as an archaeological field technician and working her way up as a Research, Project, Senior, and now Principal Archaeologist. When asked what she likes best about working at HRA, she says, “Our staff! I am so lucky to have such driven, smart, fun, and compassionate colleagues who amaze me with their tremendous skillsets. Our team has thrived as a result of supporting each other and learning from each other, day after day.”
