Chua Jian Wen
Chua Jian Wen is a green building consultant dedicated in making sustainability a core value within the built environment. She graduated with First Class Honours in Civil Engineering from the University of Malaya. She began her career as a structural engineer at T.Y. Lin International Sdn Bhd. While working with construction materials like concrete and steel, Chua began to question environmental impact of buildings. This led her to shift into the field of green building. In 2022, she joined GBI Innovation Sdn Bhd and is currently a senior consultant. Committed to continuous learning, she has earned multiple credentials including GBIF, and LEED Green Associate, allowing her to understand and apply a variety of certification frameworks. Despite difference in requirements, all green certifications ultimately pursue the same goals—enhancing energy and water efficiency, reducing carbon emissions, promoting sustainable site choices, and encouraging the use of environmentally building materials. What keeps her excited in this field is the fact that every project brings a new challenge and a new opportunity to do better. Whether she is reviewing building designs, collaborating with architects and engineers, or engaging with developers, she brings both technical knowledge and a deep-rooted sense of environmental responsibility to the table.
