Alexa Kaczmarski

As a national campaign organizer for the food campaign, Alexa is taking on the corporate control of food that corporations like Monsanto and McDonald’s represent. She works with activists, educators, health professionals, and other constituencies to challenge McDonald’s abuse of our food system and end its marketing to children. Prior to joining Corporate Accountability, Alexa worked as a Green Corps organizer. In that position, she launched and led grassroots campaigns in Seattle, Baltimore, and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania to challenge antibiotic overuse on factory farms, stop chicken waste from running into the Chesapeake Bay, and stop the use of harmful chemicals that are decimating bee populations. She studied environmental studies and sustainable food systems at Brown University.
