America's Change Makers
The story of plastic is evolving. And it’s being written by our scientists, engineers, designers, technicians, innovators and others – America’s Change MakersSM – who are leading sustainable change for America’s Plastic Makers.
As technical service and development scientist at Dow, she’s translating her experience of falling out of the sky into changing the “orientation” of plastic waste.
By linking innovation with sustainability, we’re changing the way plastic is made, used and remade.
We’re finding new ways to make plastic lighter, stronger, more efficient and more recyclable. To keep plastic in our economy and out of our oceans and rivers. And to create the innovative products we all need to build a more sustainable infrastructure for our loved ones today… and for future generations.
We’re leveraging our history of innovation to make sustainable change.
