About Hannah Sherman

I’m a sustainability leader passionate about tackling one of the world’s most pressing challenges: plastic waste. As Manager of Sustainability at Rothy’s, I lead initiatives that transform waste into opportunity, including our zero-waste manufacturing processes and a groundbreaking national shoe recycling program. To date, we’ve kept over 200 million plastic bottles out of landfills and oceans—proof that sustainable innovation can drive real change.With over eight years of experience in corporate sustainability and environmental advocacy, I’ve worked with organizations like PVH Corp. and the World Wildlife Fund to advance circular economy principles and influence sustainability policies. Beyond my corporate work, I’m dedicated to helping everyday consumers understand how their choices can make a difference in mitigating plastic waste and protecting our planet.Whether it’s speaking at industry conferences, collaborating with policymakers, or sharing actionable tips on sustainable living, my mission is to inspire individuals and businesses to embrace a more sustainable future. Let’s make sustainability accessible and impactful—one step at a time.
