About Me
- Lina
- I am a Muncie transplant, a young professional who believes in Muncie as a green community. I was born in Malmö, Sweden and have a B.S. in Environmental Science from Malmö University. I moved to Muncie in 1999, but left for two years after getting my M.S. in Natural Resources from BSU to work for IATP, a nonprofit in Minneapolis. I came back to Muncie in 2003 and have worked for a sustainable Muncie ever since. I worked for the Sierra Club, taught classes in the NREM department at BSU, and was Executive Director for the Cope Environmental Center in Richmond. I was also a chemist for the Bureau of Water Quality, and currently write grants for the Muncie Sanitary District. I am a strong believer in many local groups and have served on the boards for Red-tail Conservancy, Muncie Delaware Clean and Beautiful and been involved with the Muncie Young Professionals Group. In 2006, I founded the Smart Living Project, a nonprofit providing resources for sustainable living in Muncie. I live with my husband and my dog in the Minnetrista neighborhood and consider myself a “downtown kid”. My life is local and centered on my house, my garden and downtown, except for the occasional trip home.
