“The interior green wall products you presented looked absolutely stunning, even as images.”

Jorge Chang, AIA, CPHD, LEED BD+C, Principal, UAI Urban Architectural Initiatives, RA, PC

“Thank you for your presentation on Green Roofs - well researched, laid out and delivered.

I found it to be informative on design parameters, technical and aesthetic considerations and the potential of integrated solutions with blue stormwater roofs and solar photovoltaics.”

“Your style of speaking was very relatable and fun. Your knowledge and passion for the topic was not only infectious but also timely.

It's often a challenge to get a multidisciplinary team like mine to all stay engaged and interested. After you left, the whole team echoed my delight in learning more about your company's services and the policy changes happening around us."”
