It continues to amaze me how life can take you to the most unexpected places. As I reflect back on 2023, it’s been an interesting time of change, learning, and growth. I’ve learned (sometimes the hard way) over the years to keep my eyes open, while freeing my mind of not having hard and fast expectations for most things. An opportunity can present itself in even the most challenging circumstances. This mindset has allowed me to venture into opportunities I would not have thought of and to meet incredible people from all walks of life. Through intentional actions, support from my network, and definitely some luck, I’ve been fortunate to be slowly combining my passion for impact with my skills into work I truly enjoy. As I shared in a post in September, I had joined REUSO as an advisor earlier in the year. In recent months, I’ve been able to work in the trenches with Eva Bugg and Neil Misak to see first hand the hard work they’ve put into the company. It’s simply inspiring. They represent the epitome of mission driven founders. I’m excited to announce that I have joined REUSO full-time as their new COO. It was an opportunity that I could not pass up. I am grateful to work alongside Eva and Neil on REUSO’s mission to better the world by eliminating single-use waste at scale. I look forward to helping scale our operations and continue building a software solution that will have a meaningful and long-term impact. As I think about my journey the past several years, it’s amazing to consider all the touch points I’ve had and how they led me to this current destination. I’m thankful to everyone for the support along the way. Look forward to making more touch points and hope you join our journey! 📷 - Our team at Lincoln Park Zoo onboarding staff members and customers to REUSO’s software system. #REUSO #Sustainability #Reuse #Software #Chicago
