I am a journalist who has written about sustainability, design, and innovation as a freelance contributor to national, regional, and trade publications. I have researched and written about how brands can have more sustainable supply chains, and explored the challenges of re-shoring manufacturing to the U.S. I work on the Textile Taskforce at Circular Philadelphia to create solutions for waste diversion and recycling and am a member of the Environmental Sustainability Council at The College of New Jersey where I am a full-time professor of Journalism and chair of my department.
