Hello! I’m a mom, applied economics PhD, environment health expert, and modern design lover. Everyone wants their homes to support a healthy and happy life. Unfortunately, building and decorating non-toxic and sustainable spaces takes a lot of work. It shouldn’t take someone with a PhD to figure out what "natural" and "healthy" really mean, but since we can’t rely on regulations to protect us, I’m here to help.
I am the founder and editor-in-chief of Because Health, an environmental health education campaign and the Director of the Collaborative on Health and the Environment, an environmental health non-profit. I have a PhD in applied economics at the Foster School of Business at the University of Washington, a MSc in Environmental Science and a BA in Economics from Stanford University.
