At EDF, I communicate stories about climate, science, politics, and organizational change to 1000+ global employees. I also serve as editorial director for EDF's daily internal publication, "Insider," and I write and curate our weekly all-staff newsletter. I also do a lot of tech-y project management and operations work.
​
I recently helped found EDF's first Disability-focused ERG.
