Liz’s work is grounded in the Michigan Good Food initiative, a statewide agenda to advance food that is healthy, affordable, and fairly and sustainably produced. She co-coordinates the Michigan Local Food Council Network, a community of practice for local food and food policy councils, facilitating networking across councils in the state, managing a small grant program, and connecting with resources at local, state, and national levels.
Prior to joining CRFS, Liz served as coordinator for a county-wide collaborative of food access organizations. She holds a master’s degree in public affairs from Indiana University and a bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of Wisconsin.
