I am looking for a project where I can exploit the applied aspects of my expertise related to healthy, sustainable, green buildings and built environment. We spend nearly 90% of our lives inside buildings of one form or another. Thus, the built environment has become an integral part of our natural environment. Hence, we would need to focus on moving towards buildings that are energy efficient, low emissions, and also provide a health living space for their occupants.
