Old Dog, New Tricks….it can happen!


Pashek Associates is committed to integrating sustainable design in all of their endeavors.  Toward that end, the firm encourages staff to prepare for a take the LEED Accreditation exams sponsored by the US Green Building Council.  Now to the ‘Old Dog’ part.  Jim Pashek, president of Pashek Associates, and a self-proclaimed old guy, recently passed his LEED exam to become an accredited LEED Green Associate.  He joins is colleague Nancy Lonnett Roman, RLA who is LEED-AP accredited.  Jim hopes that others in the firm will follow his and Nancy’s lead and study for and take the exam soon.

“The green building movement strives to create a permanent shift in prevailing design, planning, construction, and operational practices toward lower-impact, more sustainable, and ultimately regenerative built environments.” (from the Green Building and LEED Core Concepts)
