“I won’t retire but I might retread” – Falling from Above, Neil Young
Just over three years ago Joel retired from almost three decades of public service in California, notably with the University of California and County of Placer. This afforded Joel the opportunity to help Susan set up SwiftEnvirons in Sun Valley, Idaho. Along with retreading his feet and rebuilding homes in California, they embarked upon soul-searching that resulted in focusing on the projects where we can make the most difference. We foster planning, architecture and sustainable solutions in healthcare and life sciences research, either through our own design choices or as part of larger inititiaves.
The result has been working with exemplary clientele in healthcare innovation and life sciences research and development. These include private builders bringing environments for life sciences technology and advanced manufacturing, innovation in infection reduction through ultraclean ventilation Avidicare, and facilities management for the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine in their mission to fund cutting edge cures. This work is in partnership with Susan Swift and our firm SwiftEnvirons LLC. Anchored in Sun Valley, ID, our projects are located from the Northwest, California to the Southwest, Northeast and Europe.
