The College of Fellows honors those APT members who have provided valuable services to the preservation field and to APT. Each year, the five-member College of Fellows jury reviews nominations and elects up to six new Fellows for induction at the APT annual conference. The jury, a committee of the College of Fellows, includes three Fellows selected by the College, one member at large, and one member of the Board of Directors selected by the APT President with the approval of the Board of Directors.
The College of Fellows thanks member François LeBlanc, FAPT (03), for preparing a video tribute to APT and NTC pioneers from Canada’s National Capital Region for the 2017 APT/NTC Joint Conference.

Welcome to the New 2024 Class of Fellows
Jean Carroon, FAIA, LEED Fellow, FAPT
Jean Carroon’s leadership and voice on Sustainable Preservation is among the most committed, knowledgeable, thoughtful and inspiring. An influential mentor, valued colleague, trusted friend, and consummate professional, Jean provides us with clear vision and inspirational wisdom that permeates everything she does. Her gift for communication informs her book Sustainable Preservation, the first North American textbook on the subject.
A founding member of the Technical Committee on Sustainable Preservation in 2004, Jean has maintained a constant, inspiring presence on the committee since. She has been a consistent speaker, session chair, and sponsor at APT’s annual conferences, and maintains strong connections between APT and other organizations. Jean’s project work, research, and work for APT have been recognized before. In 2006, Jean and other founders of the TCSP accepted the President’s Award; in 2012 she was recognized with the Harley J. McKee award, APTI’s highest honor. She has received professional recognition for her preservation, mentoring, and sustainable preservation work from the AIA, and other groups.
Gina Crevello, MSc, APT RP, FAPTGina Crevello is a trailblazer in building conservation practices who exemplifies the principles, ideals, values and mission of APT. As the managing partner of a successful firm, Echem Consultants, Gina is an accomplished building and site-conservation professional specializing in active catholic protection design where she applies electrochemistry and associated non-destructive testing to the practice of architectural conservation. Gina freely and regularly shares her technical expertise within and beyond the APT community. Over the last 24 years she has attended conferences, co-authored bulletin articles, authored a Practice Point, peer-reviewed Bulletin articles, and presented at conferences, workshops, and local chapter symposia.
Gina has served in leadership roles at both the chapter and national levels of APT. Her work as co-chair of the Training and Education technical committee resulted in some of the first recorded webinar offerings in APTs history. However, her Presidential leadership in the face of unprecedented challenges during the COVID pandemic stands as one of her signature achievements. During that period she leveraged her business skills to not only keep APT financially healthy, but also moved the annual conference into virtual mode when at a time when online webinar delivery was still in its infancy.

Exhibiting an exceptional work ethic, he is highly qualified on issues regarding the advancement of the philosophy and practice of preservation technology and understands how all of the small details, including the materials and science behind them, feed into the bigger picture. He has an eager willingness to share his projects with students and colleagues alike, with tours and educational opportunities related to his highly significant preservation projects. Bob has pursued his responsibilities to APT as single-mindedly as he pursues goals in his professional life. He has twice served on the Board of Directors, and sits on the Finance Committee. As Co-Chair of the APT Development Committee, a crucial source of funding for APT’s conferences and overall programming, he directed the organization of conference sponsorship for the two virtual conferences held during the Covid-19 pandemic. In 2008, Bob spearheaded the formation of the Western Great Lakes Chapter of APT and served as its founding President, sharing his talents by rallying the area’s preservation community to establish a fund to ensure that the chapter started with a cushion of years’ worth of operating costs.
