Lisa Pellegrino

Lisa Pellegrino is a self-professed "zero waste geek". She takes great pride (and joy!) in transforming waste streams into supply chains, through fulfilling TerraCycle's mission in eliminating the idea of waste. She got her MBA in Sustainable Systems and manages business development for the Zero Waste platform, a turnkey solution for recycling any hard-to-recycle product or packaging. Lisa enjoys collaborating with others to shift the mental model from seeing waste not as garbage, but as misplaced resources. When she's not absorbed in the world of waste elimination, she loves reading, riding her bike, and singing & playing music with friends.
