I am a self-employed consultant with an educational background in mechanical engineering and sustainable design. I am an Accredited Professional for green building rating system programs such LEED AP BD+C. LEED standards for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, and BD+C targets Building Design and Construction projects. It covers sustainable sites, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere
, transportation, indoor environmental quality, and materials. The WELL Building Standard involves features of the built environment that impact human health and wellness. It ties several features of buildings to the impacts on several systems of the body (i.e. muscular, digestive, nervous system and more). My greatest interest has been to support resource-efficient, healthy buildings and homes, and sustainable sites. Outside my doorstep I have been cultivating a native plant landscape with the aim of supporting a healthy, biodiverse ecosystem in my backyard. Through my personal journey, professional training, and career experience I look forward to sharing practical solutions that others can implement in their own lives.
