Personal Narrative:
Kevin is the President of Integrated Environmental Solutions (IES), North America, which develops building performance analysis software for architects and engineers and also provides global sustainability consulting services.  Kevin has a diverse professional practice background that has involved practicing on both coasts as an architect, façade engineer (Arup+Partners), in start-up companies in the software industry (Revit & Moca Systems) and as the Director of Technology & Innovation at Green Roundtable in Boston, MA (USGBC Affiliate) providing sustainability consulting services for a wide range of project types.  He also served as co-Director of NEXUS - Boston's Green Building Resource Center (free and open to the public), and has taught courses and studios at the Boston Architectural College. 

 

Kevin has been a part of the LEED Faculty since 2006, and has a passion for integrative design and exploring, designing and implementing new ways that architects, engineers and others can collaborate during the design process to develop innovative solutions.  Another driver is the desire to 'quantify impacts' for sustainable strategies such as natural and mixed mode ventilation and other hybrid strategies to assist making 'net zero energy' and 'carbon neutral' a more common reality.
