Liz Brandwood,

strategist

Research is both of my middle names.

Why I work at Big Duck:

Big Goose wasn’t hiring. Plus, I get to do interesting work that helps further great causes. What could be better?

What I think is just ducky:

Green spaces, jazz music, John Donne, tea

What really ruffles my feathers:

Fig Newtons, antibacterial soap, misuse/disuse of the subjunctive

Life before Big Duck:

I grew up in the woods of New Jersey and recently received my degree in English from Yale.  When I wasn’t reading books and writing papers, I volunteered in local schools and traveled around the country and the world with my singing group. I spent my summers working with different nonprofit organizations. Their missions inspired me, and now I’m at Big Duck, where we work with similar organizations every day.
