Envirometrics was founded in September of 2009 by Mike Hall. Mike established Envirometrics after seeing the harmful impacts of modern life on nature and the environment.

Mike has made it his mission to be an excellent steward of our wonderful world resources and to help industrial leaders in their stewardship.

With Mike’s education and experience, he was naturally attracted to environmental consulting. Mike’s knowledge of chemistry, biology, and toxicology combined with his 30 years of experience help him to work with industrial leaders, reduce waste cost, minimize risk and make their business life more sustainable. Envirometrics provides a unique perspective on our natural resources, how they can be utilized, and the importance of understanding from a macro viewpoint the impact our choices have on the environment and does so in a way that benefits both the environment and the business. This perspective helps their customers to be well informed and to have engineered environmental solutions that will save them time, save them money and reduce environmental risk.

As our population continues to grow, Mike looks forward to helping his clients and our community continue to be good stewards of the land. To pull from Mike’s favorite quote “Do the right thing and it will return to you in ways you cannot predict.

For over a decade, Give Me a Chance/DeMarillac Formal Attire has changed lives. Founder Maria Nguyen, Daughter of Charity, rented a historic building in downtown Ogden with the dream to improve our community by teaching women how to sew.

Manager Susan Thompson loves that the seamstress program provides more than just sewing skills to countless women. Not only do participating women have opportunities to earn a living, but they also gain self-confidence and improve their self-esteem along the way.

Women who graduate from the sewing programs can hone their customer service, retail, and alteration skills while working in DeMarillac Formal Attire–part of Give Me a Chance. Customers to the formal wear boutique will find gorgeous attire at affordable pricing, one-on-one service, and professional alteration.

Give Me A Chance helps improve the livelihood of entire families by offering after-school tutoring to children in the community. During the after-school programs, children have the opportunity to get direct help with their homework, practice art, do science experiments, and be kids.

For Susan, her biggest reward has been to see the community come together to help Give Me A Chance deliver life-altering services to families in need.

Vikkie Noble established Your Distant Assistant in 2010. She founded the business when she fell into virtual assisting/bookkeeping after moving back to Utah from California. She works remotely to provide these virtual assisting and virtual bookkeeping. Vikkie then began to do voiceovers for her clients phone systems. As she got more interested in this, she decided to start a second business. The Queen’s English, which was established in 2021.

Vikkie truly loves when she exceeds expectations for her clients or has been able to find things such as fraud on a bank statement – small things, but things that make a lot of difference to a client.

Vikkie’s organization is unique due to the fact that she can provide her admin skills to a client’s presentation and then also apply voiceover to that same presentation. This has allowed her to have a versatile business. Being British has also allowed her to bring a unique perspective within the voiceover community by having a different accent.

Vikkie is excited about growing her organizations in the future and developing herself in the voiceover community. She is excited to help local businesses increase their visibility by using her accent without breaking their marketing budget.

Kris and Paul have been serving the Ogden community with their Mountain Donuts business since 2018. When Kris and Paul were exploring different types of businesses, they knew that they would find support for their business and love for their custom artisan donuts in Utah.

If you get the chance to talk to Kris and Paul about their business, you’ll hear them place double emphasis on the community and their customers.

Kris added, “We love to see the kids’ faces light up and break out into dance when they get to pick out their own custom donut made special for them. It’s their own work of art that they get to eat.”

Mountain Donuts has been honored with many business awards since its opening including, Best in State, Best in Northern Utah, Best in South Ogden, and Finalist for Best Small Business of the Year in Weber County.

Inspector Tony Home Inspections was established in 2016 by Brenda Gerena and Tony Stewart. They founded the company based on their love for homes and serving the community.

The inspiration for starting the business came from finding major issues in their mother’s home that should have been caught at the time of the inspection. With their mom in mind, they started the business with the underlying commitment to “Protect one of your biggest investments with a thorough home inspection from a reliable and honest, licensed, and insured home inspector.”

From the day Brenda and Tony came to Ogden they wanted to be part of Ogden’s redevelopment. “We have lived in Ogden for 11 years and love the people, arts, music, and history in our wonderful city.” Their community connection prompted them to extend beyond Inspector Tony Home Inspections to serve the city’s youth and take ownership of Youth Impact in 2016, which was previously owned by Robb Hall since 1992. They immediately related with the organization’s theme of “A Safe Place To Be A Kid.”

Not long after taking the helm of Youth Impact, Brenda says they found breakthrough success. “The first Casino Night event in 2017 produced funds to make Robb Hall’s dying wish come true – a new building to expand service to 100 more kids a day. That event raised almost $30,000 in five weeks.”

Both Inspector Tony Home Inspections and Youth Impact have enabled Brenda and Tony to serve the community in countless ways. “We love it when we see our customers return to us, or we are referred by family and friends. That is the biggest compliment we can get.”

Imagine riding in a clean-air electric bus – aided by dedicated bus lanes along the way – between Ogden FrontRunner Station, Lindquist Field, the Junction, Downtown Ogden, 25th Street, Weber State University, and McKay Dee Hospital.

Bus Rapid Transit or BRT combines the capacity and speed of light rail with the lower cost construction of an integrated bus system. Once complete, Ogden BRT(formerly route 603) will provide riders a clean-air ride in an electric bus from the Ogden FrontRunner Station, through downtown, along dedicated bus lanes in the center of the road on Harrison Boulevard and through the Weber State University campus, and to McKay-Dee Hospital. When operational, riders will be able to catch the bus every 10-15 minutes on weekdays and 15-30 minutes on weekends. The project will benefit the community by reducing vehicle trips, supporting the economy and providing transportation choices.

Utah Transit Authority, Jacobs Engineering, AECOM, WCEC, and Stacy and Witbeck have partnered to design and construct the Ogden BRT line over the next three years. Project segments will be constructed simultaneously in multiple locations to ensure project completion in a timely manner.
