Ayse Gizem T.
Sustainability Consultant | Green Building, LCA, ESG & Assessments
I am a Sustainability and Green Building Consultant, Architect, LEED AP BD+C, WELL AP, and Fitwel Ambassador with 10+ years of experience supporting 40+ international projects across Europe, Türkiye, and the Middle East. My work spans green building certification, LCA-based performance assessment, carbon and resource efficiency, ESG-style reporting, and sustainability evidence review. I have worked on projects including flagship retail stores, data centers, hospitals, offices, government facilities, and mixed-use developments. I help clients turn complex sustainability requirements, technical documentation, and fragmented evidence into clear, decision-ready outputs: gap analyses, action plans, review reports, compliance trackers, and practical recommendations. What I can support with: • Green Building Certification LEED, BREEAM, WELL, Fitwel, and HPSB documentation, gap analysis, credit strategy, design/construction coordination, and reviewer response support. • Carbon, LCA & Resource Efficiency Embodied carbon analysis, One Click LCA workflows, material impact screening, water efficiency strategies, and carbon reduction recommendations. • Energy & Water Performance Coordination Daylight studies, water budgeting, low-flow fixture strategies, and whole-building energy modelling workflows delivered in collaboration with qualified mechanical engineers when engineering assumptions are required. • ESG & Sustainability Reporting Support GRI-style sustainability content review, Scope 1/2/3 emission source mapping, sustainability communication, KPI structuring, and practical action plans. • Evidence Review & Sustainability Assessments Reviewing technical documents, certificates, policies, strategies, datasets, and proof links; verifying information against standards, official databases, and reporting requirements; organizing findings into clean spreadsheets and audit-ready summaries. Recently, I have also been supporting sustainability benchmarking and assessment work for destinations/cities, where I review environmental evidence, compare submissions against criteria, verify documentation, and prepare clear evaluator notes. This has strengthened my ability to work with multilingual sources, incomplete evidence, and complex sustainability indicators. Why clients work with me: • I combine technical sustainability knowledge with structured research and documentation skills. • I am comfortable working with ambiguity, fragmented evidence, and high volumes of information. • I know how to translate technical data into clear, usable recommendations. • I bring both certification-level precision and strategic sustainability thinking. • I collaborate with engineers and technical specialists when deeper modelling or system-specific input is needed. Whether you need green building certification support, LCA/carbon review, ESG documentation, sustainability benchmarking, or a practical sustainability action plan, I can help you make the information clearer, more reliable, and more actionable.
