Beema roster placement, Lead Engineer title, bio closer, and a developer-facing feature article

What was done

• Roster order (src/data/team.ts) — moved Beema Dahal to immediately after Ryan Benson (now the 5th card, rightmost of row one on the About grid); David Bailey shifts down to row two.
• Title — Beema “PE” → “Lead Engineer (PE)” to match her LinkedIn. Flows through to her bio <h1>, page title, and Person schema jobTitle.
• Bio closer — added the house-pattern italic closing line to Beema’s bio. It’s a values line (mentor generously, leave the profession better than she found it) rather than a hobby line, because no personal/off-hours detail was supplied — see “queued” below.
• New article — src/pages/dev-iq/land-use-intelligence/welcome-beema-dahal.astro: “What an ASCE Region 8 governor on your engineering team means for your project.” Byline Kelli Black (COO). Registered in the Land Use Intelligence index (featured, with Beema’s headshot as the card image) and added to the /search/ curated fallback.

The article — research basis

Written to clear the collection’s bar (substantive, developer-facing, sourced), not as a press release. Researched and cited:

• ASCE Region 8 is the largest geographic region in ASCE — 9 U.S. states (AK, AZ, HI, ID, MT, NV, OR, UT, WA) + 4 western Canadian areas, 14 Sections including Southern Idaho. (regions.asce.org/region8/about)
• Region governor = 3-year term, ~34 days/yr; bridges Society leadership and members, shapes regional initiatives, serves on Society-level committees. Beema is one of the governors elected in the 2026 slate announced 2026-06-04 (the D’Antonio president-elect announcement).

The argument the piece makes for developers/builders: engineers active in standards governance read where codes/practice are heading a cycle early, carry agency credibility, and have networks that unstick problems — and Beema sits on a verified, PE-stamped bench (David P-8272 since 1996, Jonah P-20218, Beema P-19852; EITs Zack and Cole on the PE track). Ties explicitly back to the licensure credential pillar and the parcel-level Dev.IQ ethos.

Why

Ryan’s requests: reorder/retitle Beema to match LinkedIn, give her bio the house closer, and publish a researched welcome/governor article that makes developers and builders feel confident about choosing Bailey — especially with Beema aboard.

Queued for Ryan / Beema

• Personal off-hours line — still using a values-based closer; swap in a real hobby/personal line when Beema sends one, to fully match the engineer-bio pattern.
• Article card uses Beema’s headshot (consistent enough among the aerials); swap to a treated aerial if you’d rather keep the grid uniform.
