I grew up near Gainesville, Florida, on a farm riding horses, raising farm animals and being in the country. It formed who I am and my love of all things green and the wild spaces where they thrive. These passions led me to be a visionary sustainability leader with over a decade of experience driving transformational initiatives in sustainability, supplier diversity, and operational excellence. I have a proven track record of aligning corporate goals with ESG principles to achieve measurable impact in global supply chains. Being well versed in Scope 3 emissions reduction, regulatory compliance, and stakeholder engagement has enabled me to be a distinguished speaker and industry advocate with a strong presence in international sustainability forums. Some examples of my latest contributions are as follows: 

– Keynote Speaker: World Economic Forum, First Movers Coalition (2024).
– Special Guest: The White House Aluminum Convening (2024). 

– Keynote Speaker at Procurecon West (2024) 

–  Keynote Speaker: NMSDC Business Leadership Summit (2024)
