It is time for a new way of being and living. We must learn to live harmoniously and restoratively within Earth's limits. I believe it is possible if we are open to letting go, learning, simplifying, and working together in this process.

 

I am a zero-waste climate emergency urbanist and entrepreneur specializing in sustainability, circular economy, upstream waste prevention, systems development, and organizational leadership.

 

Since 2008, my work has focused on the intersection of urban planning, public health, and social equity. I have conducted international waste and sanitation research, and helped clients reduce their consumption and waste mindfully.

 

To advance zero waste systems development, I am Co-Founder of EarthEx, an ecological waste prevention business model that is replicable and adaptable to communities worldwide.  In addition, I serve as Zero Waste and Compliance lead for San Francisco International Airport, where I lead the design and coordination of the Airport’s transition to zero waste by way of waste reduction practices, policy, infrastructure, compliance, and program development.

​

I hold a Masters of Urban and Regional Planning from the University of California Los Angeles, a B.A. of Architecture from Barnard College of Columbia University, and studied sustainable business at Presidio Graduate School. 

​

I am available to consult and speak on sustainable business and communications strategy, plastics and consumption reduction, waste prevention, and the future of modern ecological living for groups of all ages and demographics.
