After years of experience in the hospitality industry where she witnessed enormous amounts of food being wasted, Haley redirected her focus towards supporting a more sustainable food system. She nurtured her interest in local foods by volunteering at nearby farms and as a food rescuer with Food Rescue US. The immediate positive impact of providing nutritious foods to her community led her to take on a larger role with Food Rescue US. Haley is both the Co-Site Director of Food Rescue US - Fairfield County managing the organizations largest and longest-standing program and is the National Site Coordinator supporting new sites utilizing the Food Rescue US technology to develop their grassroots food recovery program. Haley also works as an assistant at her hometown farmers' market and sits on the committee of her local town farm.
