Casey Fritz. Zero Waste Marin & County of Marin Waste Management Division (term ends 12/2025)
Casey grew up in the Bay Area and has worked in the Zero Waste field since she graduated from UC Berkeley in 2017. Throughout her career she has worked for a non-profit to implement zero waste programs at schools, and on the outreach and education teams at both Marin Sanitary Service and Recology in San Francisco. These roles helped to deepen her knowledge of how waste is handled and further her passion for helping people reduce what they send to landfill. In 2023 Casey completed a Master of Science in Environmental Management degree at the University of San Francisco, and wrote her Masters’ thesis on the lifecycle emissions of our food system and how local governments can reduce those climate impacts.
Casey currently works for the County of Marin as a Senior Planner, where she manages the outreach programs for the Zero Waste Marin Joint Powers Authority. This includes managing the Zero Waste Marin Schools Program, the edible food recovery program, social media channels, pilot programs such as bringing Repair Fairs to Marin County, and Zero Waste Marin’s Local Task Force. Casey is honored to serve on the NCRA Board to connect with other folks who are passionate about advancing zero waste solutions.
