   Generation180

   Nov 2021 — Present · Los Angeles, CA, US

   Working with the amazing folks at Generation180, a national nonprofit working to inspire and equip people to take action on clean energy. We are working to bring about a widespread cultural shift in how people get their energy, focusing on high-impact climate solutions like solar and electric vehicles. I helped create the Climate Comedy Cohort which the newest initiative from Generation180 to use humor and creative communications to educate and inspire individuals to take action in their communities, with their shopping decisions, and at the voting booth. I also host the podcast \"Comedians Conquering Climate Change.\"Most recently, I co-created Climate Cultura, a program for Latinx creatives to get involved in the climate fight.
