Lisa Accardi serves as ReFED’s Events Manager, overseeing the planning, management, and execution of ReFED's events, most notably the annual Food Waste Solutions Summit. She has more than 20 years of experience managing events, projects, and communications for both large corporations and nonprofits. Nicknamed the "Queen of Leftovers" by her family, Lisa is passionate about solving the food waste crisis, as well as other climate change initiatives. Prior to ReFED, Lisa was Events and Communications Manager for a biomedical research institute in San Francisco, where she oversaw overall event operations and led the planning of all high-level events.
