ABOUT - Brianna Kilcullen

Who am i

I’m a Sustainability & Supply Chain Consultant and the founder of my own consulting practice, which is designed to work one-on-one with companies to inform, shape and help implement objectives and strategies for the long-term.

My passion for my work first began from a trip to the textile factories in Central America where I received hands on experience working on the factory floor. I gained the utmost respect for the people who make my clothing and from there went on to draft, create and become Under Armour’s first ever full-time sustainability position based out of Baltimore, MD.

experience

After Under Armour, I went on to manage and direct prAna’s sustainability program, which is a subsidiary of Columbia Sportswear. During my tenure, I integrated a $2 billion sustainability program, created prAna’s first ever Impact Report, expanded the Fair Trade USA program into Vietnam, participated as a key contributor to REI’s Product Sustainability Standards, shared best practices in sustainability solutions for brands such as Surftech, Kohls, the adidas Group and The Cheesecake Factory and worked and trained factories all over the world on completing social, environmental and traceability self-assessments.

previous experience

Prior to the apparel industry, I lived in Uganda post-civil war and traveled and worked on agribusiness initiatives on the northern Ugandan and South Sudanese border. I have also lived in South Africa and studied human rights and race relations.

I’m a graduate of the Outdoor Industry Association’s Skip Yowell Future Leadership Program, a six-month program to prepare, unite and amplify the voice of future outdoor industry leaders. I hold dual citizenship in the United States and Ireland. I enjoy traveling, reading and being outside.

My services

I work with businesses and organizations big and small, including assisting with or leading minor and major projects. I am personally invested in keeping up with trends, new innovations and regulations which enables me to contribute to speaking engagements on a wide variety of topics. For businesses or organizations that are just getting started, I offer an affordable reduced rate to assist with sustainability efforts. Depending on project scope, mission, and availability, I am open to contributing pro bono services to non-profits or start-ups that are fully dedicated to creating positive social and environmental impact.
