Justin Trezza  - Program Director (2008)
Justin Trezza Prior to beginning his career with SHI, Justin dedicated his time to grassroots organizing and environmental advocacy with Greenpeace USA. Justin, a graduate of the George Washington University, first got involved in the non-profit world in 1999 when he interned with the social entrepreneur organization Ashoka: Innovators for the Public. Following his graduation with degrees in International Affairs and Anthropology in 2002, Justin set off for the jungles of Honduras where he served three years as a Peace Corps volunteer working to educate and mobilize rural farmers. During his service, Justin worked to develop integrated design systems such as biodigestors that utilized organic waste material to produce energy for cooking. In addition to integrated systems, Justin worked towards implementing permaculture as part the Protected Areas Management training program of Peace Corps Honduras. Justin remains committed to the principles of simplicity and holistic approaches to solving our current energy and environmental crisis.
