Coffman Names Four Principals for 2025

ANCHORAGE – Coffman Engineers (Coffman), a national multidiscipline consulting engineering firm, announced Jeff Brace, PE, as one of four new principal shareholders.

Jeff is a civil engineer with over 20 years of experience leading commercial and federal projects. His extensive portfolio includes managing design-build and design-bid-build projects for the military across Alaska, the West Coast, Hawaii, and Guam, as well as overseeing commercial site design, and water and sewer utility installations. 

Jeff has honed his design, contract management, and project leadership skills through his years of experience working on a range of civic, commercial, education, federal, and industrial projects. He’s well versed in earthwork quantities, site grading, stormwater management, traffic flow optimization, and utility conflict resolution. His depth of experience with local and national institutions and coordinating with stakeholders and permitting agencies makes him an asset in complex infrastructure projects.

His good-working relationships with architects, contractors, and project managers allow him and his team to accomplish project objectives. He’s also a recipient of the Anchorage office’s Neil Pearson Service Award – a recognition selected by his peers for his mentorship, hard work ethic, and good nature.

“We are very pleased to welcome Jeff into the owner-principal group. He has been a dedicated leader, managing large multifaceted projects and delivering great outcomes for our clients.
