Get A Grip On Lighting Podcast

“Leave the earth better than how we found it.” That’s Melissa’s definition of sustainable. Of course she agrees that it is more complicated than that when it comes to the lighting industry. Luckily Brian Huff the chairman of NAILD's Distributor Committee for Sustainable Lighting joins us to add some flavor. Listen to this episode as we solve all the problems. Almost. Melissa divides her time between architectural lighting design and sustainable manufacturing consulting. As the leader of Sladen Feinstein’s sustainability efforts, Melissa is continually curious about the relationship between architecture, the human experience and what it means to embody space. Brian Huff is President of Adventure Lighting in Des Moines, IA. He’s been in the lighting industry for 13ish years, and owned the company for 5 years. He spends a lot of time with his two kids going to kid's sports, coaching kid's sports, playing golf, and volunteering on a few local boards/non-profits.
