Kim E Shinn
PE, LEED Fellow, BEMP
Principal | Sustainability Wizard | PEAK Institute
I practice engineering because the results of my work can improve and protect the health, safety and welfare of human beings. In short, it’s not my career, it’s my cause. TLC’s leadership has made a commitment to sustainability and high performance design, which aligns with my personal values and desires.
Kim’s passion for sustainability led him to become a LEED AP in 2001. He was elevated to LEED Fellow in the 2011 inaugural class of Fellows and named to ENR’s 2016 Top 25 Newsmakers for his development of an energy modeling game, “The Wizard Show”.
