Description

Hi!
I am a 30-yo engineer with experience working as a consultant for energy efficiency and sustainability in buildings. After graduating from a master's program in Sweden (oriented towards energy efficiency and environmental approach in building design) I moved to New York for a consulting job. Having faced the difficulties of working in an office for long hours in a very hectic and stressful environment, where the pressure of the commercial aspect takes over the joy of creation and connection to people, I have decided to slow down and recalibrate my approach to work and life.

I remain very passionate about the sustainable, environmentally friendly methods in building design, however I feel that I am lacking the practical skills to better understand and connect the design theory with its execution. I am always looking for different ways to help create better buildings - whether through using natural materials, applying passive measures for cooling, heating and ventilation or creating smart systems for water/ air conditioning, using as little conventional technology as possible and relying on building physics principles. I am also interested in learning more about permaculture and taking advantage of the abundance that nature has to offer.

My dream is to collaborate with like-minded people, and help to create buildings and spaces where comfort and well-being of the occupants, energy use, cost and environmental impact are crucial considerations.

I am a very positive, open-minded person, eager to learn anything and everything the project has to offer. Above all, I appreciate the human connections. I am looking forward to hearing from you :)

Autres infos...

I am addicted to being in nature - going for walks, runs and hikes is my form of self-care. Otherwise I am passionate about travelling, meeting people and learning about different cultures. I love music in all forms - I don't play any instrument (other than occasionally my vocal cords :) ) but would love to learn.
