LEED Fellow

Susan founded BuildingWrx in 2011 to help clients find collaborative, sustainable solutions for greening buildings, sites, cities and businesses.

Susan served as the founding director of sustainability for Battery Park City Authority (BPCA) in New York City during its groundbreaking creation of some of the greenest urban buildings in the world. Susan worked in all levels of design and construction in furthering the sustainability goals of BPCA – from the early development of green design strategies, through construction documentation, construction, and on to the critical and continuing operations of the properties.

As a volunteer on many committees for USGBC, Susan takes an active role in the development and constant improvement of all LEED Rating Systems. Her knowledge in this area is a result of her role in each LEED project of Battery Park City, that in total represent 5 million square feet of new and existing green buildings in NYC, built to the highest levels of LEED.

Susan holds degrees in Environmental Science and Landscape Architecture from the School of Environmental Science and Forestry and from Syracuse University. She is a LEED Accredited Professional (BD+C) and a Registered Landscape Architect in New York State.
