Stephani Carter is a LEED® Accredited Professional and a passionate Sustainable Building Materials Specialist. She is trained as an interior designer (NAIT alumni) and, after working in the industry, recognized a need for a new support system to transition the current market to a more sustainable one. In 2006 she started her own consulting firm, EcoAmmo.

Stephani was actively involved with creating the Alberta Chapter of the Canada Green Building Council in 2003 and remained on the board for six years. Stephani is a self proclaimed ‘volunteer-aholic’ and volunteers with many groups including the Clean Air Strategic Alliance where she sat on the Indoor Air Quality committee for 2.5 years. The IAQ team just recently published their report which is the first of its kind in Canada.

With the great demand for EcoAmmo Services in March of 2007 Brandy Burdeniuk made a welcomed addition to EcoAmmo.  Making EcoAmmo a dynamic duo of passionate environmental consultants.

Brandy Burdeniuk is a graduate of the Industrial Design program at the University of Alberta and a LEED® Accredited professional.  Prior to starting EcoAmmo with Stephani Carter in 2007, Brandy worked for three major architectural firms, contributing her knowledge about green products and materials, as well as her outstanding design skills. EcoAmmo is a consulting firm that offers sustainable research and education about the built environment, providing tools and services to educate and excite those who work in the building industry about green design. Although Brandy is young, her passion and knowledge of sustainable design is an important and valuable resource for the industry. She believes that collaboration and diversity is key to finding environmentally sensitive solutions, and since January 2008, Brandy has taught Green Design at the University of Alberta Faculty of Extension, a course she developed with the EcoAmmo team.

As multiple levels of Government in Alberta adopted the LEED® certification standards for their building projects, another influx of proposals allowed us to bring Andrea Pelland onto our EcoAmmo team.

Andrea Pelland graduated from the University of Alberta with an Honours Degree in the History of Art, Design and Visual Culture.  Andrea's main areas of study were the history and theory of sustainable design, architectural rating systems, and sustainable communities.  She has given lectures on surrealist architecture and the Glasgow Four, and believes that design can change the world. Andrea was an active board member of MADE in Edmonton, and has participated in numerous design chartettes regarding the City of Edmonton.  Andrea brings a unique background and fierce organizational skills to EcoAmmo and we are extremely pleased to have her on the team.

As the world feels economic pressures, the green building world ramps up to help make the environment and our economy more sustainable with green jobs, green energy and green building projects. We are delighted to add another expert to our team to help our company help this movement transform the world.

Arden Tse is a LEED® Accredited professional with almost a decade of combined experience in project management and commercial real estate sales.  He graduated from the University of Alberta with degrees in Psychology and Commerce, and brings with him a wealth of business management, project management, and sales skills to the EcoAmmo team.

During his time as a commercial real estate agent, Arden became involved early on with MADE in Edmonton where he met Stephani, Brandy, and Andrea, and developed his passion for sustainable development.  Seeing an opportunity to become more involved with the sustainable building movement, he decided to leave brokerage and put his real estate experience and LEED® accreditation to use as a consultant with EcoAmmo. Arden prides himself on maintaining a high degree of professionalism when it comes to client management and delivering results.  His goal is to use his communications skills to bridge the distance between the worlds of design and implementation, and help his clients design high quality, efficient, and healthy buildings. Arden has recently completed the Graduate Certificate in Project Management program at the University of Alberta.
