Meet the people and partners behind our work.

Team facilitator, impact zealot, and below-average zoom DJ, Austin has worked in climate & energy for 20 years as both a leader and subject matter expert. He loves the challenges and problem-solving of a startup nonprofit, seeks outside adventures, and is often too quick to crack a dad joke.

Ellie is an accomplished product manager with experience scaling tech solutions for impact. Ski fanatic, ocean lover, and passionate believer in the potential for corporate action against the climate crisis, Ellie has an MBA in Sustainable Solutions. She is always seeking ways to improve her impact, her team, and her dog’s falsetto, and loves a good high five.

After many years working for big-name software development firms, Patrick made the brave but questionable leap into nonprofit climate work as TCCP’s first in-house engineer. He balances the demands of full-stack responsibility with his penchant for board games, sci-fi literature, and his endearing dog.

Craft beer aficionado with a strong passion for her Puerto Rican culture, Alicia brings experience in project management and customer service and holds an MBA in Sustainable Innovation. She looks to create impact and apply intersectionality to everything she does, and believes that everyone can - and should - find a role in addressing the climate crisis.

Our partnerships leader, Greg brings nearly two decades of nonprofit experience working on corporate, consumer and policy solutions to the climate crisis. He loves to find opportunities for uncommon bedfellows to work together to protect the environment. Greg and his family can be found exploring the mountains and coast in North Carolina and searching out epic wilderness areas in Argentina.

Sarah brings a consumer brand perspective to the TCCP team, with a background in e-commerce customer support and sustainability. She holds a degree in Environmental Studies from UC Santa Barbara. A California native, you won’t find Sarah far from the Pacific Ocean adventuring in and out of the water.

Spencer started at TCCP as our second software engineering hire, but has since become our team's Gen-Z representative, emoji consultant, and transit superfan. When he's away from the computer screen, he can be found on a train, playing rock paper scissors with strangers, touching grass, flying kites, being a ball person at the US Open, or trying new sweet treats around NYC.

Courtney brings experience from both nonprofit and corporate roles, specializing in carbon management and sustainability strategies. With a Master’s in Public Administration, she is dedicated to fostering collaboration between the public and private sectors to leverage climate action. Courtney is based in the New York Metropolitan area. She is a local chapter leader for Girls on the Run, and in her spare time she enjoys browsing bookstores, reading, and playing with her dogs.

Lauren brings over 7 years of marketing experience across fashion, beauty, tech, and nonprofit sectors, with a focus on brand marketing, community building, and campaign design. Based in Orange County CA, Lauren enjoys spending time at the beach, tending to her garden, and trying new recipes.
