Maisie Coburn

Maisie is passionate about educating the next generation about the effects that unethical business practices have on the environment, the business community, and society. She is involved in The Chocolate Project, a grade school curriculum she developed with her father and a family friend that uses the chocolate trade, art and entrepreneurship to educate students about what happens when businesses don't value nature. For the past two years she has collaborated with teachers and students in the New York City public school system to see the project through its pilot phase and revise the curriculum and is currently in the process of seeking funding opportunities and ways to expand the project's reach and impact. Her goals for the year are to expand her worldview in order to be a more empathetic and conscious human being and leader, become fluent in Spanish, and get out of her comfort zone as much as possible. Her favorite quote is "The older we get the more we realize how little we know."
