Niraj Poudel

Niraj has worked at SketchUp for 8 years training Architects and Engineers on how to leverage SketchUp, Sefaira, and Pre-Design during the design process in pursuit of Net Zero Energy for projects. Prior to SketchUp he also worked at HOK as a sustainable design specialist where he led the performance analysis (Energy, Daylight, LCA) of projects to provide recommendations to designers/engineers at the firm. At HOK he also led the LEED and WELL documentation of multiple projects across the US that are now LEED and WELL certified.

Niraj is passionate about bringing performance into the design process as early as possible and therefore advocates for all designers to take the time to learn the fundamentals of sustainable design. He believes that designers have the power and the responsibility to drive the sustainable design narrative for every project no matter how big or small.
