As an experienced architect with more than twenty years working with institutional, commercial, and nonprofit clients, Kristen has helped shape a sustainable and resilient built environment from house and farm to academic facilities and multi-family housing. She began her career in historic preservation to extend and revive the life of existing buildings as a key component of the sustainable fabric of our communities. She loves learning the stories existing buildings tell and what they can teach us. As her experience grew to include adaptive re-use, new construction, and renovation, Kristen integrated this expertise of time-tested building techniques with contemporary sustainability strategies, supporting a resilient and enduring built environment. Her experience with historic and passive house building envelopes has given her a sharp eye to apply as a certified Building Enclosure Commissioning process provider. Kristen is also a committed community member and advocate, supporting Green Building United, ULI,  and Living Future as well as being an elected Philadelphia City Committeeperson for her neighborhood.

In addition to her project work at Re:Vision, Kristen leads the firm’s Outreach + Development efforts, telling the stories of the work Re:Vision does and scanning the horizon for opportunities to do more good in the world.
