Background
Prior to joining RMI’s US Program team, Molly spent five years working at the International Living Future Institute, where she oversaw the Institute’s green building policy efforts and supported project teams around the world in their pursuit of deep green building performance.
While at Columbia, she published a capstone project outlining strategies for the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) to meet its climate equity targets. Most recently, she joined Evergreen Action as a summer policy fellow to complete a deep dive on building decarbonization at the federal level and identify opportunities presented by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
