Member since 2022
Hello fellow NCRA members! I started my journey working in trash in 2007, when I worked as Zero Waste Coordinator at the UC Davis R4 Recycling Program. As a lifelong environmentalist, that experience galvanized my interest and led me to work in Zero Waste event management for more than a decade, managing crews for events with up to two million attendees. Along the way I spent two years at the SF Green Business Program, obtained an M.S. in Environmental Management, and now work as a Senior Consultant at R3 Consulting Group, where I assist public agencies in all aspects of solid waste programs.
In addition, I serve as a board member for the nonprofit Race to Zero Waste and have been on the Zero Waste Youth USA planning committee for 7+ years starting in 2014. I started volunteering at the NCRA Recycling Update in 2015 and have attended almost every year since. I’m also an active member of CRRA, including moderating a panel at the 2023 CRRA conference.
If elected to the NCRA Board, I would be pleased to contribute my extensive experience and knowledge of the industry and my passion for Zero Waste. It would be my honor and great pleasure to work more closely with NCRA to provide the best possible programs at the Recycling Update and throughout the year.
