David's work is focused on fielding solutions that push back against the lowest-first-cost minimum-building-code paradigm that has allowed the built environment ecosystem’s ceiling to become the lowest minimum expectation, rather than its floor. Through P3I.GLOBAL and ESG IMPACTS, he equips investors, developers, architects, and planners with the decision-ready, business-case data they need to substantiate the deployment of generationally responsible designs, technologies, and capital strategies which lead to safer, healthier, and more prosperous places for everyone.
