Bry Sarté,
Principal Engineer
Bry Sarté is founder of the San Francisco and New York City based civil and environmental engineering
firm Sherwood Design Engineers. As Principal of the San Francisco office, Mr. Sarté leads development
of the firm's international, national and local project work. He has years of international engineering
experience ranging from environmental master planning and sustainable infrastructure design in urban,
mixed-use and resort developments to site planning for individual buildings and single sites. Mr. Sarté
has provided engineering direction to masterplan and improvements projects throughout North
America and in world-class destinations in the Caribbean, the South Pacific, Africa and Europe. During
development of an ecologically-oriented masterplan at Butterfly Bay in Northern New Zealand, Mr.
Sarté facilitated communication between local agencies and parties representing community and
indigenous interests that informed the project. Mr. Sarté also led civil design for the incorporation of
water conservation into existing infrastructure along Italy's historic coastline of Costa Smeralda. Mr.
Sarté is currently managing Sherwood's development of low-impact infrastructure design on the
secluded islands of Seychelles Archipelago in the Indian Ocean. In addition he manages similar project
work in Catalina Island off the coast of Southern California, Draper Lake in Florida, Tagahazout in
Northern Morocco, Loreto Bay in Mexico and St. Kitts Island in the Caribbean.
Mr. Sarté has been published internationally and has made significant contributions to contemporary
research involving global environmental issues affecting architecture, material science and energy use.
He has appeared as a guest lecturer at the University of California Berkeley and Stanford University,
presenting materials on environmentally sensitive infrastructure design and construction. Mr. Sarté has
presented on similar topics at the San Francisco Planning and Urban Research Association (SPUR), and both the American
Society of Landscape Architects’ national and statewide conferences.
Andrew J. Leahy, Senior Engineer
Andy Leahy has over twenty-five years experience as an engineer and planner in the design and analysis
of civil engineering infrastructure and environmental restoration. Mr. Leahy serves as Senior Design
Engineer on many of Sherwood Design Engineers' most extensive infrastructure masterplan projects.
He has worked both as an independent consultant and with firms such as Greiner Engineering, Inc. a
civil engineering and land planning firm that provides engineering and architectural design services on
projects throughout the United States and in the Asia/Pacific region. Mr. Leahy's experience spans all
aspects of the land development and civil improvement process from local government, to private
construction contracting, to engineering and city planning consulting. His broad background provides a
solid foundation for the identification of efficient, cost effective and ecologically sound engineering
solutions for infrastructure development, resource allocation and project management.
Mr. Leahy has prepared engineering designs and performed environmental analyses for a wide range of
projects throughout North America and extensively in California. As an engineer with a master’s degree
in city planning, Mr. Leahy is able to successfully bridge the gap that so often separates planning goals
from construction implementation. The scope of his experience includes circulation layout design,
roadway and earthwork design, assessment for district formation, stormwater management, water supply
and distribution, wastewater treatment and disposal, hydrology and water quality assessments, soils and
geology, wetlands mitigation and stream restoration along with all facets of civil engineering design and
plan preparation.
Eric Zickler, Senior Designer
Eric Zickler has over 6 years of experience as an engineer in the design and analysis of water treatment
systems. Mr. Zickler holds a B.S., Civil Engineering, Colorado State University and a M.S., Civil and
Environmental Engineering from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. Mr
Zickler’s focus and specialty has been in alternative water resource engineering and advanced water
treatment systems. Mr. Zickler has authored Urban Water Management Plans, Managed Groundwater
Basins, and assisted in developing Recycled Water Programs throughout California. Mr. Zickler has
also managed and participated in multiple surface and groundwater modeling studies to evaluate
sustainable yield values in aquifers and investigate the potential for conjunctive water uses.
Manon Terrell, Student Researcher
Manon Terrell, LEED AP, is a student at Stanford University in the Department of Civil and
Environmental Engineering. Her research interests include sustainable building materials and
environmentally-sensitive design and construction techniques, particularly for lower-income and/or
developing communities within the United States and abroad. She also has a growing interest in
sustainable infrastructure best practices in urban contexts.
Julia Campbell, Student Researcher
Julia Campbell is currently a student in the Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of
California, Berkeley. Her studies focus on engineered systems and she has a strong interest in weaving
sustainable features, such as green buildings, low-impact transportation systems, and high-efficiency
municipal systems, into the designed landscape.
