Kristen von Hoffmann, Founder and Co-Director kvh@greenfoxschools.com 
Kristen von Hoffmann founded Greenfox Schools in March 2008 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Kristen graduated from Yale University in 2006 with a B.A. in English and also studied conservation biology, international relations, and agricultural policy. She first developed the Greenfox5 strategy as an undergraduate at Yale University, where she played an integral role in the start-up of the Yale Sustainable Food Project (YSFP). Kristen received a Sudler Creative Arts Scholarship from the University in 2004 to document a semester on the YSFP’s organic farm through photography, interviews, and policy analysis. After college she started Greenfox and taught elementary school for four years. Currently, Kristen is a member of the K-12 Steering Committee for the U.S. Partnership for Education for Sustainable Development, a United Nations Compact, as well as a former Board Director for the Boston non-profit ExCL, Extras for Creative Learning. In May 2009 she was invited to the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland, to contribute to the global Transformative Education Forum. The oldest of three daughters, Kristen was raised in Montclair, New Jersey, where she attended the Montclair Cooperative School and Montclair Public Schools.

several environmental initiatives. In 2005, she interned for the Williamstown COOL Committee where she compiled data on the eCO2 emissions of the town and college, and created a Climate Action Plan to reduce emissions. Later, she played an integral role in creating the Hoosic River Watershed Association Recreational
Assessment, evaluating water quality and appropriate recreational activities. Ashlee completed her
Master’s in Education at Lesley University in 2010. She spent several years teaching elementary school before
shifting into her current role as Greenfox Schools Co-Director.
