Becky Hoag

Hey, I'm Becky! I am a freelance environmental reporter, and I'm looking to get more into the city sustainability and environmental research and consulting spaces. I am halfway through earning a masters in Energy and Environmental Management to advance my understanding in environmental law and management strategies.

I previously worked as a city sustainability coordinator fellow where I helped the City of East Palo Alto, CA, applying to grants and worked with engineers, management analysts, nonprofits, and community members to reduce emissions and improve equity and resilience.

I also cover climate change news and policy on my YouTube and Twitch channels (both called the Beckisphere).

More specific skills I have experience in include:
  - Writing grant proposals
  - Improving FEMA community rating system (CRS) scores
  - Maintaining a regular community-focused sustainability newsletter
  - Collaborating with other cities to create joint projects
  - Organizing community events
  - Updating/reorganizing webpages
  - Developing social media strategies
  - Synthesizing science and climate change research, law, and policy into engaging media

I am actively looking for career and freelance opportunities!

​

In my free time, I love to try new foods, weight train, snowboard, read, and play with my cats, Rue and Vetra.
