Jessica Vreeswijk, Director of Circular Economy Data
She/Her/HersWhy I Care About Recycling and a Circular Economy
Jessica has over twenty years of experience leading projects and strategic programs in various organizations from venture-backed high-growth companies to large corporations, government, cultural institutions, non-profits and member associations. She has enjoyed finding creative solutions to complex and systemic challenges in BioTech, IT, Government, Oil & Gas, Retail and now Recycling.
Personal Passions and Interests
She is passionate about protecting the environment and building human systems that recognize the value of shared resources. A circular economy challenges us to move from a take-make-waste economic system to one designed for reuse and recycling. We have an opportunity to slow the destruction of natural environments at both the beginning (extraction) and end (disposal) through recycling. Outside of work, Jessica loves being outdoors, cycling, hiking and gardening. She also loves cooking and experimenting with new recipes.
