"Taking up this work was as unexpected as the earthquake itself," he says. "It's not the kind of thing you plan for as a part of your career. The quake just gave me the opportunity to put into practice some ideas I'd been talking about, things like green building, community participation in projects, and ecological sustainability."
「從事這些工作就像地震一樣，不可能是生涯規劃的一部分，只是地震讓我有機會把過去口中談論的綠建築、社區參與、生態永續的理念，得以具體實踐，」他說。
