Author Information

Patricia Andrasik is an associate professor at the School of Architecture and Planning at The Catholic University of America (CUA) and a licensed architect in Washington, D.C. She was a Fulbright Scholar at the Slovak University of Technology while earning her Master of Architecture at the University of Oklahoma. She then taught as a visiting professor in Beirut prior to returning to the US to practice. Informing design through performance metrics, and using performance metrics to inform building operations and maintenance, have become the foundations of her teaching and scholarly research, and internationally recognized by the publications/conferences of organizations including JNIBS, NBI, AASHE, ACSA, AIA/COTE, and others. Andrasik has created several novel courses to promote environmental integration into architecture. She was awarded seed funding to integrate building performance analytics (BPA) into the design process for local and international architectural projects, and collaborated with Autodesk to run a pilot class for analytical plug-ins. In addition to co-authoring Heating Cooling Lighting: Sustainable Design Strategies Towards Net Zero Design (Fifth Edition, 2020), Andrasik co-founded BEEnow, a non-profit organization inspiring NAAB-accredited schools to emphasize the teaching of low-energy design, and recently received the President’s Award for the Advancement of Teaching at CUA.
