Hi, I’m Jamie.
I’m a climate activist, strategist, and communicator.
I’m the founder and executive director of Fossil Free Media, a nonprofit communications lab that supports the movement to end fossil fuels. We provide direct communications support to grassroots organizations, produce videos & other multimedia, run digital campaigns, and fund investigative journalism. We also lead our own, hard-hitting campaigns, like Clean Creatives, an effort to get PR and Advertising agencies to stop working with the fossil fuel industry, and Stop The Oil Profiteering (STOP), which educates the public about who is really to blame for high gas prices.
Before starting Fossil Free Media, I co-founded 350.org, the largest grassroots climate organization in the world. I wore many hats at 350, including East Asia Director, Development Director, US Program Director, Communications Director, and Strategic Communications Director.
Over my 12 years with 350.org, I helped grow the organization from a group of seven college friends and writer Bill McKibben to over 150 staff in more than 20 countries and hundreds of thousands of supporters around the world.
During that time I was a driving force behind some of the most successful climate campaigns of the last decade, including the fight against the Keystone XL pipeline, the People’s Climate March, the fossil fuel divestment movement, the ExxonKnew campaign, the Global Climate Strikes, and more. In 2022, I was honored to be one of the Grist 50 Fixers.
In 2020, along with launching Fossil Free Media, I helped start Stop the Money Pipeline, a coalition of over 150 organizations working to end the financing of fossil fuels.
