As a licensed civil engineer with a Masters in Community and Regional Planning, Nick Meltzer brings a unique background to the Community Service Center. His ability to combine technical analysis with public engagement has been beneficial on projects involving transportation, recreational economics, and natural hazard mitigation. Having worked as a wilderness educator for the last ten years, he especially enjoys the opportunity to mentor students and facilitate meetings, while exploring communities across Oregon.

When he isn’t working, Nick enjoys human powered pursuits, and is constantly in search of the perfect day, which includes breakfast, mountain biking, and a local microbrew at the end. Hailing from New England, his favorite topics of conversation include maple syrup, the weather, and how bad the frost heaves are this year.
