Sustainable Resources for Design & Deliverables
This is a project that I'm volunteering for that I happen to also be spearheading. This tool will step land development designers through the process of incorporating sustainable principles into their designs and deliverables. Take a look at the prototype that I created for one best management practice "Save a Tree".

Sears Armory Community Advisory Committee
Starting December 8th, I'll be serving on the Sears Armory Community Advisory Committee to assist with the public process associated with the redevelopment of the Sears Armory site located in Multnomah Village (at 2730 SW Multnomah Blvd). Community Partners for Affordable Housing has been awarded the use of this site to master plan affordable housing. Article link here. |
This web site was designed with a black background and white text because a rumor was spread by Blackle that it reduced greenhouse gas emissions, but that turned out to be a big fat lie debunked by actual experimentation AND... people had trouble reading my website, so I changed it to white. It's still hosted by Dreamhost, a carbon neutral company. Please consider the environment when printing this or mailing me things or traveling to see me for a meeting or... ohhhh, just do your best and change your practices when you learn something new.
