Experience
Fund Director
Mar 2024 — Present · Los Angeles, CA, US
I provide strategic leadership to the new Safer Chemistry Impact Fund. This innovative, collaborative approach to funding science-based, data-driven solutions aims to systematically eliminate hazardous chemicals and replace them with verified safer alternatives. This, I believe, is an essential step to unlocking truly sustainable solutions to the climate and plastics crises. We cannot reduce our reliance on petrochemical products without safer and, ultimately, truly sustainable chemicals that are manufactured according to the principles of green chemistry. The fund will strategically deploy capital to scale solutions to meet the urgency of these challenges.In this capacity, I also serve as a liaison with active stakeholders in government, finance, philanthropy, and NGOs to promote the alignment of sector initiatives. If you would like to invest in accelerating the transition to a nontoxic, safe, and circular economy, please reach out!
