Ariana thrives on finding tangible ways to represent, synthesize, and communicate seemingly disparate ideas like, “industrial” and “ecology”. She firmly believes that many of life’s most pressing questions evade pure quantification and she emphasizes the need for justice and beauty.
Her work spans the US, India, and Bangladesh and integrates applied projects with peer-reviewed academic research. She has chased scrap dealers through India, started the first university-level sustainability education program in Bangladesh, and created strategic sustainability plans for corporations in the US. Ariana offers Except backrubs and yoga instruction in exchange for inspirational interdisciplinary collaboration.
Ariana holds a masters degree from Yale University and a bachelors from Wesleyan University. Her industrial ecology research projects were presented at three academic conferences in 2009, and she continues to publish and conduct primary research in the field. Over the past six years, she has worked as a research fellow, a consultant, a professor, and a gardener.
