About Parker Townley

As a senior program manager on Amazon\'s global vendor management team I support impact at scale through collaboration on product, supply chain, and corporate sustainability initiatives. Our work with Amazon\'s largest selling partners provides value to people, planet, and profit.Over the years I have developed expertise in building partnerships and identifying ways for industry leaders to come together in pre-competitive environments to collaborate on sustainability issues. I also advise and support brands, retailers, traders, and manufacturers as they seek to educate internal staff and better communicate their sustainability efforts.I hold a MBA from the University of Washington\'s Foster School of Business, which focused on data analytics, brand management, and supply chain management. I spend my free time backpacking and skiing in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest and California, and home-roasting coffees from around the world.
