In 2020, he joined HMC Architects, a large firm based in California, as the design industry's first Chief Impact Officer.[1] Previously, he was a principal, design director, and co-leader of design resilience of Gensler.[2] For a decade, he was a design director with "green pioneer" William McDonough and also has been the first Chief Sustainability Officer with the international architecture firms RTKL Associates[3] and Perkins Eastman.[4]
