ABOUT ALEXA COULOMBE MCGOVERN
I am a new mom who is unimpressed, uninspired, and concerned by the products available to me and my baby, and ultimately what they are made out of: plastic. I am a cancer survivor who was told my breast cancer at 29 may be caused by “environmental” factors.Knowing that even my body is contaminated with plastics, that those plastics passed to my daughter in utero, and each day more are building up in her body is not something I can ignore. She deserves better, we all do. I’m on a mission to develop an alternative to plastic with kelp.I have a background in CPG sales and marketing and most recently in SaaS R&D and Strategy & Ops work. I also own and operate a kelp farm. I’ve been told I’m incredibly entrepreneurial, thrive in ambiguity, lead confidently, and have an innate ability to solve the meatiest problems. I am a Mainer who cares deeply about where I come from. I want to invest in what keeps Maine special and create jobs that support generations of Mainers to come.
