Environmental Career Chats are informal networking opportunities for U-M students to connect with environmental professionals about their career journeys. September’s virtual Environmental Career Chat is focused on Sustainability in Business with Carolyn Hwang, Sr. Global Product Manager.

Carolyn is a Program in the Environment alum (’05) who wrote her thesis on local perceptions of a marine reserve in Belize. In the Peace Corps, she worked with community leaders in Peru on environmental and public health awareness programs. Later, she joined Root Capital, a social impact investor that finances small sustainable businesses in Latin America and Africa. There, she helped the organization grow strategically in her capacity as human resources manager. She returned to the University of Michigan to get her MBA and currently works in marketing with Medtronic, a medical device company, where she launches diabetes technologies around the world. Originally an East Coaster, she currently lives in Los Angeles with two spoiled rescue cats.
