I\'m also an investor & advisor in ReSeed, a public benefit corporation with climate, social and economic impact. I advise on consumer aspects of the business, including outreach and engagement with their retail platform.I started my career in television, developing and producing award-winning programs for broadcast and cable networks, including ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, HBO, Showtime & Disney.
