John has been a leader in chemicals management and policy development since the early 1990s. Through his experiences as an industrial chemist, academic, educator, and entrepreneur, he provides a unique insight into the dynamic requirements for adequate chemicals management and policy. John has been involved in the establishment and advisory of a number of initiatives, awards, and industrial boards to further green chemistry implementation and protection of human health and the environment. In the early 1990’s John served as a founding stakeholder for helping to design the Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge.
