Lev Birman

Lev earned his B.S. in Physics at UW–Madison and my M.S. in Physics at Virginia Tech. Originally from Miami, Florida, he chose to pivot to EPM to address a challenge very close to the heart: marine plastic pollution. As a physicist, he likes to take a fundamental approach to problems. In the case of global plastic pollution, his focus is source reduction. To that end, his interests center on extended producer responsibility, reuse policy, and building circular systems at scale. At EPM, he is pursuing a specialization in Environmental Economics & Finance, and a certificate in Industrial Ecology. If you share similar interests or just want to connect, feel free to reach out!
