With broad-ranging professional experience and a lifelong passion for caring for the planet, Brittany tripped into and unexpectedly fell in love with recycling. While in a role broadly supporting sustainability programming, her interest initially was piqued when learning more about materials recovery facilities (MRFs), which ended up being the gateway to learning about the realities of recycling in the U.S. Her expanded knowledge and desire to contribute to solutions led to the pursuit of a full-time career in the space. Currently, in her role as the Senior Director of Materials Advancement at The Recycling Partnership, she oversees the strategy for material specific recycling investments.
