What are you most excited about as you begin your time at LBJ? Although I loved studying environmental science and doing research, I wanted to use the science to inform policy and decision-making. While I was a student , I worked as a research assistant at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. Through this experience I started thinking about how local governments can fund and finance the necessary climate mitigation, adaptation and resilience work.
My experience at CDP sparked my interest in multistakeholder collaborations and made me think about the roles of nonprofits and philanthropy in addressing climate change.īefore CDP, I was a Climate Corps AmeriCorps Fellow with the City of Oakland, where I worked on several projects including developing a map linking projects in the City’s Climate Action Plan to potential sources of funding. In this role, I brought together local governments, investors and nonprofits to shift capital into equitable climate projects. At CDP, I worked with local governments to showcase planned sustainable infrastructure projects to the capital markets. I was working at CDP, a global nonprofit that runs an environmental disclosure system for corporations and subnational governments. What were you doing before graduate school? An Austin native, Allison will be joining the MPAff/MBA dual degree program in fall 2021. She graduated from Colombia University with a BA in Environmental Science, formerly worked at CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project), and served a year as a Climate Corps AmeriCorps Fellow before returning to Austin and the Forty Acres for her graduate studies.
