Background

Wendy joined RMI after ten years at ICF, where she supported dozens of projects related to greenhouse gas mitigation, climate change adaptation, and related topics through project management and coordination, communications plan and materials development, stakeholder engagement, website development, report and summary writing, and workshop support and facilitation.

Key projects at ICF included supporting implementation of the Clean Power Plan, leading report development for Pennsylvania’s Climate Action Plan, managing communications and technical support to EPA’s State and Local Energy and Environment Program, leading stakeholder engagement for Fort Collins’s Electric Vehicle Readiness Roadmap, and guiding development of an electronic system to support submittal, tracking, and review of State Implementation Plans under the National Ambient Air Quality Standards.

At RMI, she has focused on accelerating nonfederal action to advance the energy transition, first through the America’s Pledge and America Is All In initiatives and now through support for state action.
