Jeffrey Lesk did not make it widely known that he was studying to become certified as an accredited professional by the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program from the United States Green Building Council.
A partner at Nixon Peabody in its Washington, D.C. office, and the leader of the firm’s syndication practice group, Lesk says that even his wife wasn’t really clear about exactly what he was up to. While he attributes his discretion to lawyerly caution lest he not pass the test, Lesk had an additional personal motivation for keeping things under wraps. His daughter, Emily Lesk, had recently sailed through the examination after a mere two weeks of preparation. Lesk describes her success as the “ultimate challenge” for him in qualifying for LEED accreditation.
