Brad is a commercial strategist and coalition builder helping high-potential climate solutions navigate the path from early concept to scale. He currently leads the Market Development Program at Cascade Climate, where he builds programs that bring together first-mover buyers, governments, civil society, project developers, and industry to accelerate progress on carbon removal (CDR) and near-term warming (non-CO2 "super pollutant" mitigation).

 

Previously, Brad worked to bring first-of-a-kind climate projects into the world at category-creating startups in the agricultural and ocean sectors:

- First at Indigo Ag, developing and bringing to market the first agricultural carbon credit and supply chain insetting projects generated from working land;
- Later at Running Tide, building the first open ocean carbon removal protocols, leading policy and governance for climate intervention in the public commons, and developing novel partnerships with leading research institutes, standards setters, and market makers to advance the nascent CDR field. 

 

He started his career working on commercial strategy at AB InBev, and before that spent time in Geneva learning how the largest IGOs and NGOs take on global challenges like climate change. He is a regular speaker and guest lecturer on climate action, including at the United Nations, U.C. Berkeley, Stanford, Wharton, Harvard, Yale, and SXSW.
