As Seen On

 

Why I Founded GCC

In March 2007 I realized the emerging green economy was going to open up new career opportunities and transform how we work.

With this insight, several elements of my own life aligned - my life-long passion for conservation and sustainability, my hunger for reading about and tracking new innovations, and my belief that our world will be a better place if everyone is doing the work they are well-suited to do. 

I love to guide people to discover the work that allows them to contribute to the essential issues of our time. I look forward to help you find the very best way to join the new green/clean/sustainable economy.
