Professional Experience: |
I worked in international development for 12 years, for USAID and for contractors associated with USAID. My focus was on creation of environmental/climate/energy programs in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. I was an environmental project office for USAID and later an independent consultant. Once I moved to Nashville, I got my PhD in environmental management and sustainability. I have since worked for a watershed NGO, designed environmental health policy and environmental justice courses for a college, developed zero waste, carbon offset, and other strategies for Vanderbilt, managed building operations and green building construction for the city of Nashville, and consulted, providing analyses, research, and white papers for various organizations.
