Kevin owns Sharp Development Company and has 5 years of experience in commercial real estate finance and over 35 years of experience as a commercial real estate developer in Silicon Valley. He handles all aspects of the development process and has personally completed more than 50 buildings totaling over 2.5 million square feet of space.
He has more recently concentrated on retrofitting older generation buildings to operational carbon neutrality and a net zero energy bill, while having a strong emphasis on the health and wellness of the interior environment for its occupants. He has completed 7 ZNE buildings of this nature in Silicon Valley and one in Costa Rica. The driver for Kevin has been to demonstrate that this way of repurposing existing building stock can be done in a manner that is quantifiably, significantly more profitable for the ownership than the less expensive way of building to meet minimum code.
