An environmental science consultant and executive for Normandeau Associates, Inc., Pamela Hall has spent her career helping companies and governments grow with environmental issues. Her childhood love for nature led her to pursue a career in sciences, earning a Bachelor of Arts in zoology at the University of Connecticut and a Bachelor of Science in business administration and a Master of Science in zoology at the University of New Hampshire. Before entering the private sector, Ms. Hall was a National Defense Education Act Fellow and worked as a research assistant at the Field Museum of Natural History. She joined Normandeau Associates, Inc. in 1971 as a program manager after seeing the need in environmental consulting, then an emerging field, and held a variety of positions before becoming President in 1988. Under her leadership, the company became 100% ESOP employee-owned, and her emphasis on company culture and work as a trailblazer for women in the field were recognized with Lifetime Achievement Awards from the Environmental Business Journal and the Environmental Business Council of New England in 2021. Ms. Hall stepped down as CEO and board chair in 2205 and is now an executive vice president.
