Our Team

Natalie joined Bentley University in 2012 and works to achieve the Office of Sustainability's mission to mobilize sustainable leadership in business by educating students on the business imperative of "triple-bottom line" thinking: considering social and environmental measures along with economic results. Natalie oversees two of the focus areas of our Sustainability and Climate Action Plan: Transportation and Mobility and Materials Management. These focus areas capitalize on her experience and interest in sustainable commuting, infrastructure, travel, material disposal and purchasing.

Natalie is also the architect of our Student Sustainability Leadership (SSL) Program. Our SSL program relies on students to help execute and oversee campus-wide initiatives, cultivates professional skill sets and provides hands on learning opportunities. Natalie also manages the move out donation program, known as Give 'N Go. This wildly successful program keeps tons of material out of the landfills each year by allowing students to donate unwanted items to local charities or swap them to others for reuse.

Sophie joined the Office of Sustainability as an employee in the summer of 2020 upon graduation from Bentley University with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing and Liberal Studies in Earth, Environment and Global Sustainability. Prior to becoming an employee, she served as a student sustainability leader (SSL) in the Office of Sustainability, a program she now manages. Sophie assembled and now manages the first committee to oversee the university's Green Revolving Fund. Established with a gift from trustee Nickolas Stavropoulos '79, the fund finances energy efficiency projects and supports student education. Sophie is also a major contributor to the Sustainability and Climate Action Plan. She co-chaired the Energy and Building Systems and the Lifelong Learning and Engagement committees that helped shape, and will continue to influence, the universities goals and strategies for the next 10 years.
