Northstar Celebrates Katie Eichel’s 5-Year Anniversary
July 2025
Northstar is proud to celebrate Katie Eichel’s five-year anniversary with the company. Since joining Northstar, Katie has made an impact as an owner’s project manager in the AEC industry, bringing over five years of hands-on experience and leadership to a wide variety of projects.
Katie has supported initiatives across several industry sectors including life sciences, office interiors, student housing, and ground-up core and shell developments. Currently, she is managing several interior office and laboratory improvement projects for a major pharmaceutical client. Her work includes lobby, executive office, boardroom, and lab renovations spanning over 800,000 SF across the client’s headquarters buildings. One highlight includes the fit-out of the newly opened Bitty & Beau’s Coffee café in Cambridge Crossing.
What Katie enjoys most about her role is the problem-solving nature of the work and the ability to help navigate teams through challenges to deliver successful outcomes. She thrives in collaborative environments and values working alongside professionals from a wide range of disciplines and backgrounds, believing that the best solutions come from diverse perspectives.
What excites her most about her role is the opportunity that Northstar provides to engage with a variety of project types, each one presenting new technical, logistical, and interpersonal challenges that have helped her grow as a leader and trusted client partner. This diversity has kept her work dynamic and fulfilling, and she looks forward to continuing to build strong teams and successful projects in the years ahead.
Before joining Northstar, Katie held internships with WSP and SGH as a Structural Engineering Intern and Technical Intern. She earned both her Bachelor and Master of Science degrees in Civil Engineering, with a concentration in structural engineering, from Northeastern University. Outside of work, Katie enjoys water skiing, snowmobiling, and spending time in the South End of Boston, where she lives with her husband and two cats.
Thank you, Katie, for your dedication, professionalism, and leadership over the past five years. We’re excited to see all that you will continue to accomplish at Northstar.
