Shellie Collier
Originally from Dallas, Shellie began her interest in construction at an early age. She earned a double business degree from the University of Oklahoma and after a career in sales she supported herself as an artist making glass mosaic tables. The mosaic work gradually expanded into tiling and construction. She studied Feng Shui and Color Therapy. In creating positive spaces for people, Shellie realized that there is little room for synthetic materials and excess waste.
Shellie has over twelve years of experience in green project management, renovation, new construction, and architectural restoration. In addition, Shellie has studied elements of sustainable design through both biomimicry and permaculture.
Shellie is one of the select few LEED for Home representatives in California. She is currently guiding 16 projects through the LEED for Home process, five of which are going for a Platinum rating. She is a Green Point Rater and Certified Green Building Professional. Shellie has been a guest speaker for many organizations and community events including Alt Build and the Green Building Advisor Program, and has lectured at Santa Monica College for their new Green Building Advisory curriculum.
Shellie loves to travel and observe how other cultures use sustainability practices in building homes and other structures. Shellie’s favorite pastimes include hiking in Griffith Park with her dog Barkley, and attending lectures at the Griffith Observatory.
