John Lenth

As Herrera’s Water Practice Director, I derive my greatest source of job satisfaction by coordinating the collective talents of my amazing team to solve complex problems for the good of our community and environment. I spend much of my free time fishing for salmon in the Puget Sound or fly fishing for trout in Cascade mountain streams and lakes. I am honored to work with people that are helping to protect these places I cherish.

Favorite Quote:

"The only people who ever get anyplace interesting are the people who get lost." - Henry David Thoreau

Favorite Species:

Pacific Salmon. Cultural heart of the Puget Sound. Salmon represent resurrection through their annual migration; they are forever reborn from the sea.
