Chanda Villano

Principal, Business Director

Bachelor of Arts in Communications, Idaho State University


Chanda was an academic all-American member of the track and cross-country teams at Idaho State University. She joined STEELE shortly after graduation and has spent most of her career with the firm, beginning as an office manager and working up to her current position as Principal / Business Director, where she leads marketing and business administration. She enjoys doing many tasks at once rather than focusing on one specialty, and she loves being able to support our team like they’re her second family. 


Chanda spends her free time rafting, foraging, hiking, and she occasionally will still go for a run. She is always doing something with her family and enjoys traveling to visit her daughter and to support her son’s goals in sports. Chanda is also an avid gardener and grows around 20 different varieties of peppers and tomatoes (no small feat in Central Oregon!) The team loves it when she brings her homegrown tomatoes to share.
