About Harrison Chapin

Hello! I\'m Harrison. I am actively seeking a sales oriented role to scale carbon removal & climate tech. I am motivated by my conviction that deploying 10+ gigatonnes of durable carbon removal by 2050 is one of the defining challenges of our age. In my current Freelance Business Development role at the Y Combinator-backed startup GradeWiz, I help bring Artificial Intelligence-powered edtech solutions to market. Last year I graduated from Pitzer College (ranked #1 for \"Making an Impact\") with a B.A. in Environmental Analysis, an interdisciplinary study of climate through economics, politics, data science, and communications. I was also a member of HMC INQ, Harvey Mudd College\'s student entrepreneurship incubator. I volunteer with the CDR advocacy org OpenAir Collective, where I have helped to introduce and lobby for CDR legislation in New York and California (CDR Market Development Act).In my spare time, I write and grow The Secret Ingredient, my newsletter with 1K+ subscribed readers where I adapt hit restaurant recipes for easy home cooking.I\'d love to connect with you — I have contagious curiosity and look forward to learning how I can help propel your company\'s growth to new heights!
