Karin L. Burns has spent two decades building and reshaping organizations at the intersection of energy, finance, and technology. Her career blends operating leadership with substantial investment and corporate finance work across energy and climate markets, and it has consistently produced measurable results.

She began in global finance, holding positions at JPMorgan Chase, GE Equity, i2i Capital, Gulf Capital, and Ambata Capital Partners. There she led investment banking, private equity, and advisory transactions across both mature industries and early-stage climate technologies, including a $1.1 billion cross-border sell-side deal and the sale of an electric vehicle company to a Fortune 500 buyer.

That grounding in capital led her into operating roles. As CEO of Build It Green, she returned the organization to profitability for four straight years, doubled revenue, and cut turnover in half. She later expanded her scope at Franklin Energy, running programs across six states before moving into national corporate development and M&A. As Executive Director of Code REDD, she led forest-conservation strategy and launched the Stand for Trees campaign, a platform that brought voluntary carbon credits to the public.

Today Karin leads one of California's largest community choice clean-energy providers, serving nearly 1 million customer accounts across the San Diego region. Under her leadership, annual revenue has climbed from under $350 million to more than $1 billion, and she has championed a plan to reach 100% clean and renewable power by 2035.

Karin earned a Master in Public Administration from Harvard's Kennedy School and an MBA in International Finance from Edinburgh Business School, and holds a BA from Duke University. She lives in California with her husband and two sons.

Androsky Lugo, from Eastchester, NY, is an architect with advanced academic training in architecture and sustainable design. He began his professional journey at the University of Pennsylvania, where he earned a Bachelor of Business degree in 2000. While his undergraduate education provided a strong foundation in strategy, management, and operations, Lugo soon recognized that his long-term interests aligned more closely with architectural design and the built environment.

Motivated by this realization, Lugo transitioned to Cornell University to pursue a Master of Architecture degree. He graduated with distinction from the program in 2002, demonstrating exceptional proficiency in architectural theory, structural systems, and design execution. Following his graduate studies, Lugo earned additional professional designations in Building Science and Technology and Environmental Systems, expanding his technical understanding of building performance and construction methodologies.

In 2003, Lugo returned to Cornell University to further his education in environmentally conscious building and design, strengthening his expertise in sustainable architecture and ecological integration. This advanced training marked a turning point in his career, laying the foundation for his long-term focus on environmentally responsible design practices.

Professional Experience and Major Projects

Over the course of his two-decade career, Androsky Lugo has participated in numerous high-level architectural projects across commercial, public, and civic sectors. His work reflects a consistent balance between engineering discipline, environmental responsibility, and functional design.

In 2012, Lugo collaborated closely with the San Francisco Historic Buildings Committee, contributing to the planning and renovation of multiple public service spaces. These projects required careful coordination between historic preservation requirements and modern usability standards, reinforcing Lugo’s ability to deliver contemporary solutions within complex regulatory and cultural frameworks.

A major milestone in Lugo’s career occurred in 2015, when he was commissioned by The Hagman’s Group of New York City to design and construct a building composed entirely of sustainable and recycled materials—a first-of-its-kind achievement at the time. This project positioned Lugo as an early leader in large-scale sustainable construction and demonstrated the real-world viability of environmentally responsible architecture.

During his tenure at Parkins and Rhodon, Lugo served as lead designer for a full-scale shopping center, contributed to the design of a multi-story house of worship, and worked extensively with local urban development teams to deliver affordable housing initiatives. These projects highlighted his ability to manage complex stakeholder environments while delivering architecture aligned with both community needs and structural performance standards.

Focus on Sustainable Architectural Design

While architectural design has always been central to Lugo’s career, his primary professional focus over the past decade has been environmental protection through sustainable architecture. He is widely regarded as an influential figure in green design circles for his ability to integrate ecological considerations into functional, scalable building solutions.

Lugo’s approach emphasizes the protection of natural habitats and water systems, thoughtful material selection, and architectural designs that work with the surrounding environment rather than against it. His work has contributed to a growing appreciation within the industry for buildings that seamlessly blend structural integrity with environmental stewardship.

Philanthropy and Community Engagement

In addition to his professional work, Androsky Lugo regularly provides pro-bono architectural services to organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, Homes for Veterans, and The Make It Right at Home Foundation. His commitment to community-focused architecture reflects a belief that design expertise should also serve broader social and humanitarian goals.

In 2015, Lugo founded the Architecture and Earth Awareness Foundation, an organization dedicated to educating architects, construction companies, and structural engineers on the importance of sustainable initiatives within the building industry. Since its inception, the foundation has helped promote environmentally responsible design principles across more than 400 large-scale projects worldwide.

Lugo is also deeply involved in climate protection efforts, frequently participating in fundraising events, awareness campaigns, and industry initiatives that support environmental sustainability.

Recognition and Industry Honors

Lugo’s philanthropic contributions and leadership in sustainable architecture have earned him widespread recognition. He has been named top contributor by the Homes for Veterans organization and received the Voice of Reason Award from the Green Initiative Climate Council, among numerous other honors.

In 2019, Lugo was nominated for the Pritzker Architecture Prize, one of the profession’s most prestigious recognitions. He was also nominated for the Architecture Master’s Prize in 2020 and went on to receive the Architectural Visionary Award in early 2021.

Professional Legacy

Through education, practice, philanthropy, and advocacy, Androsky Lugo has established himself as an architect whose work extends beyond individual projects. His career reflects a sustained commitment to architecture that is innovative, responsible, and aligned with the long-term health of both communities and the environment.
