Chlo Baumbach is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison where they obtained a Bachelor of Science in environmental studies and people-environment geography. While at UW-Madison, Chlo was music director of Pitches & Notes, a competitive treble a cappella group. A fun fact about Chlo and Pitches & Notes is that in 2022 the group won the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (exactly like in Pitch Perfect)! As Green Infrastructure Associate, Chlo works closely with our resilient communities program on community outreach and installations of small-scale green infrastructure projects, like rain barrels and rain gardens across the 30th Street Corridor in Milwaukee.
Chlo grew up in Madison, WI and has an extensive past with environmental work from spending a month in the Minnesota State Parks with Conservation Corps of MN and IA, working a summer at the UW-Madison Arboretum doing horticulture and landscape restoration, and interning with Sustain Dane for two farmers market seasons collecting food scraps to compost on an urban Fitchburg farm. Chlo looks forward to building connections through their outreach efforts and helping residents gain agency in their health and environmental decisions.
Outside of Clean Wisconsin Chlo manages the espresso counter at Seven Swans Creperie and concocts delicious drink menus and syrup flavors! In their free time you can find Chlo making music, hanging out with friends and their two kitties, Bia and Gigi, or binging episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer!
