Since she started, Schroll has served a key role in the evolution/creation for various PassiveLogic platforms.

“I led the initial industrial design of the Hive Enclosure — a modular, scalable plastic electrical panel that reimagines the traditional panel as a flexible, user-centered system built for autonomous control and long-term adaptability,” Schroll said.

She also co-created the 3D HVAC component library within PassiveLogic’s digital twin platform — leading the effort to develop composited 3D visual model to visually represent the physics-based equipment driving its digital twins.

She then cocreated the company’s 3D HVAC component library, turning complex physics-based equipment into a visual model.

“These models form the core interface through which users can build, modify, and interact with digital replicas of real or planned building systems,” said Schroll. “Each model is built from interchangeable components — allowing equipment to be broken down, reconfigured, and assembled into entirely new customizable systems, supporting flexibility and scalability within our ecosystem of software.”

Helping build a platform that empowers future generations to build a more sustainable world, building tools and systems that benefit them, and being part of a talent-driven team is one of Schroll’s biggest career accomplishments to date.

“By advancing HVAC and building technologies to be more sustainable, flexible, and autonomous, we’re giving future designers, engineers, and operators the foundation to create a more efficient and environmentally responsible built world,” Schroll said.

Beyond product work, Schroll led the production of PassiveLogic’s flagship 2023 virtual keynote — a two-hour launch event — overseeing creative direction, technical execution, content development, and cross-functional coordination to put on a digital experience for a global audience.

“My goal is to help fundamentally reshape the way we think about and design the systems that quietly support our daily lives,” Schroll said. “HVAC may often go unnoticed, but it has a massive impact on energy use, comfort, and sustainability. I want to be part of the driving change in this space — creating disruptive solutions that are not only more efficient and adaptable, but that also contribute to a more sustainable and resilient future. I believe that by rethinking the fundamentals, we can create systems that serve people better and make a lasting difference in the built world.”
