I founded Bee Downtown my Junior year of college. Bee Downtown installs and maintains beehives on corporate campuses across the US while simultaneously providing year-round employee engagement and leadership development programming to our partners.

At the time, the idea of a for-profit social enterprise was still such a new concept, but I believe it’s possible to do good and do well. Fast forward to 7 years later and we work with many of the largest corporations in the world including Delta, MetLife, Cisco, NYSE, Cox Enterprises, Georgia Power, Burt’s Bees, Invesco, AT&T, and more. Our story has been told around the world by media including BBC, CNN, Marie Claire, Inc Magazine, Forbes, Yahoo Finance, National Geographic, Eating Well, and more.

I care deeply about how we steward our environment for future generations! 🌱
