City of Cambridge Energy
Innovation Workshop
Cambridge, Massachusetts
Principal in Charge
Community Energy Consultant
Worked with Kendall / Barr
Foundations ,Cambridge Energy
Alliance, and MIT/Harvard
professionals to design and facilitate a 3-
day community –scale energy
innovation workshop.
Workshop was designed to develop the
leading ideas to help drive a 50-
megawatt peak load reduction in
Cambridge’ energy use. Invited 60
leading individuals in the energy field
from around the US to participate in the
workshop. Cambridge has made
significant progress from this effort.
St. Mary’s Medical Center
First St. Cancer Center
Duluth, Minnesota
Principal in Charge
Healthy Building Consultant
Oversaw the design and construction
teams to help implement an aggressive
healthy building/LEED and
sustainability program for a new cancer
center in northern Minnesota.
SMDC is the first health care
organization in Minnesota — and
among the first 10 in the United States
— to certify their 250,000 square foot
clinic using the LEED Green Building
Rating System, a nationally accepted
benchmark for the design, construction,
and operation of high performance,
healthy buildings.
Our holistic approach to healthy
building design included a view that
healthy IEQ = healthy patients. To that
end, the design construction process
included avoiding the use of PVC,
no/low-VOC and no-formaldehyde
materials and finishes, high-efficiency
air filtration, and superior daylighting
and views for patients and staff.

“Making a living is important;
sooner or later it becomes more
important to make a difference”
“We cannot rest on our past
accomplishments to realize the

and new collaborative behaviors, to
help us transcend the climate and energy challenges we are facing”
