We’re proud to announce the award of our first Sustainability Fellowship prize to Ciera Gordon! Ms. Gordon is currently completing her Bachelor of Science in Architecture and Mechanical Engineering at MIT. Ms. Gordon will join the sustainability team in New York City in our ground-breaking work on some of the most sustainable projects in the world.

Among a slew of projects at MIT, Ms. Gordon has analyzed energy efficiency of the first net zero state office building In Massachusetts – coordinating with architects, contractors and engineers in the creating of a report that will help with replication. It is this type of work that reinforces her desire for “..buildings to give back rather than take from the environment through the development of energy-efficient building technologies and sustainable design practices.” Watch this space for next summer's application announcement!
