I'm gonna have to go with D. Energy and Atmosphere. It's where the LEED AP creds would be the most relevant, unless they're also experts in dad jokes. In that case, I'd say Innovation.

D. Energy and Atmosphere, no doubt. I mean, with an energy modeler on the team, they'd be able to optimize the building's energy performance like nobody's business!

I'm going with B. Commissioning (Cx). The LEED AP credentials suggest they have the expertise to properly commission the building's systems, which is a key factor in that credit category.
