His professional and academic interests are focused on improving the social and ecological function of urban environments through design strategies such as urban greening, provision of urban wildlife habitat, water harvesting, and the creation of engaging public spaces. In addition to working on a number of current CDF projects, he will also be collecting and analyzing water retention and energy data for the green roof on CDF’s offices this summer.
