AKaminsky, Headshot_Color.jpg — Perhaps it was her summer manufacturing job that seeded her interest in resource cycles. After studying architecture, Amanda Kaminsky worked in real estate at the Durst Organization in New York, then founded Building Products Ecosystems (BPE) with a mission to evolve the systemic health of building material flows. (Her daughter once described Amanda’s job this way: “She takes trash out of the garbage.”) She works with all the stakeholders in the vast (and often recalcitrant) construction industry. BPE focuses on transparent data and industry signaling through research, job site piloting, and then standardization, which, Amanda says, is the key to scaling impact.
