Robbie Lock

Robbie joined Context in 2015. Prior to his work at Context, Robbie spent five years with the environmental nonprofit, GrowNYC, directing a public-private partnership program. While there, Robbie worked with New York City government agencies on strategy, communication, and stakeholder engagement for the long-term solid waste sustainability plan at the city’s 1,800 public schools.
