About me: 

My name is Katy Wilson (she/her) and I am a Ph.D. student at the Yale School of the Environment. 

My research focuses on the role of corporations in the climate transition. More specifically, I am interested in exploring:

1. the private governance systems that support corporate climate transitions

2. defining and evaluating credible transition plans

3. how we can proactively evaluate companies progress against their transition plans using forward-looking indicators 

Prior to starting my PhD,  I worked at a climate tech start-up and was part of the Climate and Extreme Event Risk Group with Dr Jane Baldwin (now UC Irvine).
