Chris Parker / January 16, 2024

Pacific Crest Consultants is proud to announce the promotion of three PCC consultants to new positions in recognition of their outstanding work in recent years. Amar Athwal, Kellen Oberts and Lauryn Pinsak all were promoted to Senior Project Managers, effective Jan. 1. As such, they will take on added responsibility and leadership roles on their PCC projects.

“All three of these consultants are exceptional and we are proud to put Lauryn, Kellen and Amar in a position to help more of our clients,” said PCC CEO Chris Parker. “They each are excellent at taking the most difficult projects and navigating through the bureaucratic maze to save time and money for our clients. And they are all professional, friendly and positive.

“It is a pleasure knowing that they are three of the faces of our company.”

Amar joined Pacific Crest Consultants in 2019 and works to help clients expedite building permits for high-end homes and commercial projects. Amar has an in-depth understanding of the building permitting process and strong project management skills to keep the team informed and his projects on track. He began his career in the land development and construction industry first as a land survey technician and later as a survey crew chief. Amar is a UCLA graduate with a degree in Geography and Environmental Studies.

Lauryn joined Pacific Crest Consultants in 2020 and has obtained permits for residential and commercial projects from Malibu to Pasadena and nearly every municipality in between. She has become PCC’s lead permit consultant for multi-family projects as well. Lauryn is a graduate from UCLA with a degree in Economics and also holds her Real Estate License.

Kellen joined Pacific Crest Consultants in 2021 to help our team in all aspects of the permitting process. In just a couple of years, Kellen has already assisted in the permitting of multiple multi-million-dollar commercial projects and is currently PCC’s lead permit consultant on a half-dozen more. He is a graduate of the University of Minnesota, Duluth with a bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts. Previously, Kellen owned his own creative services company designing and developing websites for clients across the US.
