Fred Schaaf

With over 12 years of experience in project management, Fred spends his busy days at the office planning, organizing, trafficking and acting as a liason between vendors, clients and the BatesMeron team. Fred can see a bump in the road from miles away and works tirelessly to keep all our wheels on the ground. Fred studied communications at Portland State University and project management at Loyola University Chicago. He honed those skills in the music industry, smoothing workflows and herding cats in promotions, production, packaging and marketing. Now in the marketing and design world, he keeps the music alive by playing songs in his office on this weird spinning thing he calls a “record player.” When he isn’t keeping us in line, you can catch him poring over Giants and White Sox box scores, skateboarding or hanging out with his wife and son.
