I am a licensed architect and a LEED Accredited Professional with more than a decade of experience in the field of green architecture and sustainable design. I have worked for several sustainable firms of note, most recently as a Project Manager for five years with Pugh+Scarpa Architects (Santa Monica, CA), winner of the 2010 AIA National Firm Award and 2010 AIA California Firm Award. Prior to then, I worked for Peter Gluck and Partners (New York, NY), Croxton Collaborative Architects (New York, NY), Stein, White, Nelligan Architects (New York, NY), and the CoHousing Company (Berkeley, CA). I have direct experience with many program types, including both single-family and multi-family housing, market-rate and affordable housing, office interiors, government clients, public buildings and schools, and I have worked on all phases of design and construction from programming through to construction administration. In addition to being an early adopter of the USGBC’s LEED system of rating buildings, earning my accreditation in 2002, I have prepared written sustainability guidelines for several projects including work on the World Trade Center site in New York City after 9/11.
