For over 20 years, he has taught a variety of courses, including Housebuilding and Remodeling, Cabinet Making, Finish Carpentry and Creating an Ecological House at the Building Education Center (formerly the Owner Builder Center) in Berkeley, California.

He is a licensed General Contractor and has a combined Master's Degree in Architecture and Ecological Design from the San Francisco Institute of Architecture (SFIA), where he was the Founder and former Director of the Ecological Design Program.
