About Ric Cochrane
I\'m passionate about transitioning to a regenerative economy - nature positive, with biodiversity as the end game. I work in the built environment because it\'s a massive economic and social lever. I think in systems and reverse engineer to help owners and organizations plan and take steps toward ambitious goals. I\'m good at asking dumb questions, learning quickly, synthesizing information, connecting people, and inspiring action. My professional experience includes sustainability consulting, business development, real estate development, historic preservation, decarbonization and energy policy, and utility program design. I have Master of Urban Planning (Real Estate) and Master of Public Administration degrees from University of Washington and I am a Fulbright (India) Fellow (2008). Certifications include LEED AP, Certified Energy Manager (CEM), and Project Management Professional (PMP). Key Experience: Decarbonization, zero-carbon, healthy buildings, sustainability, Living Buildings, LEED, WELL, Fitwel, team-building, project management, green building, energy efficiency, ecodistricts, distributed renewables, green schools, urban planning, sustainable design, historic preservation, public policy, woodwork, building bridges and digging ditches
