About

I am a Building Scientist and Product Manager with over five years of experience developing and guiding innovative, user-friendly building performance tools that streamline whole-building assessment and enable smarter, data-driven decisions across the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. At the intersection of building decarbonization, energy codes, and digital solutions, I specialize in translating complex technical requirements into practical, accessible resources for practitioners, policymakers, and jurisdictions. By combining research, data analysis, and user-centered design, I create tools that are both technically rigorous and easy to use, helping professionals achieve compliance while advancing sustainable design and energy efficiency goals. My expertise spans energy codes, compliance software, energy audits, energy modeling and analysis, retrofit planning for existing buildings, building performance standards (BPS), and whole-building life-cycle assessment (WBLCA). I am detail-oriented, skilled in project management, stakeholder engagement, and technical research, and experienced in leading collaborative workshops and meetings with clarity and confidence. What motivates me most is making a social and environmental impact through my work - developing intuitive tools that simplify complexity, support climate action goals, and empower professionals to integrate sustainable practices seamlessly into their workflows.
