Elizabeth has worked at the intersection of food, climate, and agriculture for the past fifteen years. She is Chief Strategy Officer for Mad Agriculture, a non-profit that works with farmers as agents of change to move from extractive, conventional agriculture to regenerative, organic farming. The Mad! ecosystem of companies provides land and business planning, farmer forward financing, marketplace development, and storytelling. Elizabeth’s role is to implement strategic initiatives in collaboration with their diverse network of partners in order to accelerate systematic change in our food system and help spark the regenerative revolution in agriculture.

In her prior role as President of Demeter USA, the exclusive domestic certifier of Biodynamic farms and products, she focused on expanding awareness and markets to enhance returns for regenerative farmers. She began her career in the California wine industry, where she spent nearly two decades in increasingly senior positions, with a growing emphasis on the environment.

Elizabeth speaks frequently at national food and environmental conferences, and has written extensively on agriculture and climate change.
