Headshot and Professional Bio

Jack Rusk is the CEO and co-founder of C.Scale, a software platform democratizing access to whole life carbon data and design strategy. C.Scale was founded on the belief that data-driven tools can help get "all hands on deck" in the work of transforming buildings and cities from a climate burden to a climate solution.

In the last few years, he's presented research at over a dozen conferences a year, applied machine learning to streamline early-phase carbon estimation, consulted with the Biden White House on measuring and managing supply chain emissions from buildings, and led the development of LCA methodology and data solutions for hyperscale tech companies, Autodesk, and Schneider Electric. 

He currently volunteers for the Living Future Energy+Carbon Technical Advisory Group, the AIA DDx working group, Mindful Materials Tech and Data working group, and as an AIA representative on the Embodied Carbon Harmonization and Optimization (ECHO) Project.
