Bridger Wineman

Bridger works to make the world a better place through connection, knowledge, respect, and joy. He moved to Portland, Oregon, from Livingston, Montana in 2002. As a student of urban planning at Portland State working on watershed stewardship grants, he saw the power of individual initiative and community vision in creating places that are both meaningful and resilient. In his professional life as a facilitator and community engagement leader, Bridger works to make space for creativity and collaboration in the physical spaces and policies that comprise our built environment. His work encompasses sectors of transportation, land use and urban design, energy, water, and more.

Bridger develops public involvement plans, designs research approaches, creates communications frameworks, and facilitates stakeholder processes that help center people in the decisions that affect them. A lifelong cyclist, he loves to explore urban and wild landscapes through human-powered transportation. He is often found skating through the neighborhood or pulling weeds and admiring creatures in the garden. Bridger lives with his wife, daughter, and cat in Southeast Portland.
