Lesley Herrmann

Indoor Air Quality Specialist

Lesley is an Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP) with a master’s degree in Building Science from the University of Colorado, Boulder. She also holds a national board certification in holistic nutrition through the National Association of Nutrition Professionals and is a Certified Wellness Coach.

Lesley is also a member of the International Society for Environmentally Acquired Illness (ISEAI), and in 2019, was one of ten IEPs among hundreds of doctors and health professionals to attend the inaugural ISEAI conference. She has worked alongside medical professionals for over three years to help their clients and patients fix their indoor environment so that the body can begin to rebalance and repair after toxic mold exposure.

After overcoming her personal health challenges with mold illness and healing her body, Lesley has combined her professional careers to help others navigate the challenges of mold and environmental illness so that they can revitalize their health and reclaim a happy and vibrant life.

Currently, I am the Lead Architect – North America for Akelius Residential Property AB, a global housing developer operating in seven countries in Europe, Scandinavia, and North America. In my role, I oversee the development and implementation of our design standards and initiatives for our multifamily properties in our five North American cities – New York, Boston, DC, Toronto, and Montréal. I am also currently overseeing the development of our five corporate offices, all of which are pursuing LEED certification, and two of which are also pursuing WELL certification.

I currently serve on the Advocacy Committee of the DC Chapter of the American Institute of Architecture.

I have a strong interest in the intersection of environmental and social sustainability, wellness, and affordability in both urban and rural markets. As an architect, I aspire to thoughtfully contribute to the built environment while being a steward of the natural environment and an advocate for its inhabitants’ wellbeing.
