Sustainable Solutions CT helps land trusts, towns, schools, and nonprofits measure and reduce their carbon impact. I provide fast-turn greenhouse gas inventories, carbon footprint snapshots, and clear visual reports that support Sustainable CT certification, grant applications, and community engagement. Alongside technical services, I bring expertise in permaculture and environmental economics, helping organizations connect climate data to ecological stewardship, ecosystem valuation, and long-term resilience.

Sustainable Solutions CT specializes in carbon accounting and sustainability consulting for land trusts, municipalities, schools, and community organizations across Connecticut.

Core services include:

Carbon & GHG Snapshots: ISO-aligned baselines for conserved land, town operations, and community projects.

Grant & Reporting Support: Data collection and reporting tailored to Sustainable CT, state/federal grants, and foundation funding.

Sustainability Planning: Action plans for emissions reduction, resilience, and stakeholder engagement.

Education & Outreach: Workshops and board/community presentations, including Carbon 101 for Land Trusts and Telling Your Carbon Story.

Data Visualization: Translating technical data into clear graphics, dashboards, and public-facing materials.

Permaculture Stewardship: Integrating regenerative systems design into conservation projects, linking ecological health with community resilience.

In addition to technical services, I bring a background in environmental economics and permaculture. This allows me to help land trusts and municipalities frame the economic and ecosystem value of conservation — translating forest and open space stewardship into carbon storage, avoided emissions, and resilience metrics that resonate with funders, boards, and community stakeholders.

I’ve supported global corporations (Pfizer), labs, schools, and small nonprofits, and I serve as Executive Vice President of a nonprofit board focused on housing, food, and arts equity. My approach combines systems thinking with practical, results-oriented delivery.

Sustainable Solutions CT is committed to helping land trusts quantify their impact, unlock funding, and engage their communities with credible, data-driven sustainability tools.
