A systems leader in making food systems more sustainable. My history in government, the private sector, and NGOs means I bring an exceptional set of connections and perspective to sustainability. I have contributed to the development and launch of PepsiCo’s ambitious Positive Agriculture goal and currently leads Ag Sustainability for PepsiCo’s Global Sustainability Office. I am passionate about farming thanks to my roots growing up on a dairy farm in Kentucky and have spent the past 17+ years in corporate agricultural sustainability, with previous experience in government and NGOs around sustainable agriculture. I have related academic experience from Princeton, Brown University and MIT.
