Background

About Michael Fox

Specialties: Public Service | Nonprofit Leadership | Sustainable Food Systems | Community Advocacy | Program Management | Soil Science | Strategic Planning | Bioregional Research I am a mission-driven professional with a background spanning public service, nonprofit leadership, and sustainable food systems. With over six years of federal experience advocating for Veterans at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and global service through the Peace Corps in Rwanda, I bring a deep commitment to community resilience and systems-level impact. Currently pursuing an M.S. in Sustainable Food Systems at Prescott College, I am passionate about creating more equitable, sustainable, and resilient communities through strategic planning, food security initiatives, and environmental stewardship. My experience includes leadership roles in patient advocacy, food justice nonprofits, and shipping and logistics, where I leverage strong organizational, interpersonal, and communication skills to drive results. I believe in leading thoughtfully, observing carefully, and acting intentionally. Whether navigating complex healthcare systems, designing community-based food programs, or conducting regional bioregional analysis, my work is rooted in collaboration, clarity, and a deep respect for the communities I serve. In my free time, I enjoy skiing, exploring new sustainability initiatives, and spending time with my wife and our pets in Providence, Rhode Island.
