CSR focuses on the People, Planet and Profit. The 3P's essentially focus on the health of your employees and the community, mindfulness of your organizations effects on the environment and the process in which your organization secures funding.

With 8 years of experience working within the sustainability sector I have partnered with organizations both locally and internationally in order to build green developmental standards within various industries. Recently, I have designed a Green Certification program for commercial establishments throughout NYC, that is designed to create green establishments to closely monitor waste management, carbon foot print, water usage/waste, renewable resources and socio-economic integration.

Academia

In 2009, I obtained my Bachelor of Science; Biology, degree with a minor in Marine Biology and Chemistry from Fairleigh Dickinson University. My Marine Biology minor was part of a study abroad program; in the Dominican Republic, that involved concepts of oceanography, sustainable use, and marine ecology. Through a combination of courses, laboratories, field-trips, internships and study abroad experiences, I gained the knowledge and skills that provided me a base for subsequent study of environmental sustainability across the globe.

 

In the spring of 2018 I received my Master of Professional Studies degree, in Design Management from Pratt Institute. 

While enrolled at Pratt, I was awarded 2 grants to complete projects in Haiti and Tanzania that focused on People, Planet, Profit + Culture.

 

There can be no innovation without incorporating empathy into business design and strategies.
