Advocacy
Since 2006, I have served on the Sierra Club’s Forest Certification Team. In this capacity, I have worked to influence policy within FSC and the green building movement, and have played a significant role in shaping USGBC’s approach to wood in LEED. My relationships with major environmental groups, forward-thinking elements of the forest products industry, and leaders in the green building movement help me organize powerful coalitions to effect positive change and resist pressure to dilute standards for wood in green building.
