James Roseberry, AIA, CDT, LEED AP BD+C, Director of Sustainability, Trivers Associates James is the Director of Sustainability and an Associate with Trivers. He is experienced in historic renovation, adaptive reuse, and technical spaces. He has also served a key role on many impactful projects in the St. Louis area.
