Leadership Forum: Jeff Reece - Spring 2025

Conference/Seminar

Join us for an engaging leadership forum featuring Jeff Reece, a dynamic professional and Huntsman School of Business alum, who thrived in two contrasting careers - one consulting, investment banking and private equity and one in international conservation. Hear from Jeff on his unique perspective from living in two opposing worlds. One world of perpetual growth fuel by extraction, consumption and waster and the other striving for ecological balance and social justice.

Reece is the co-founder of several organizations and initiatives that operate at the intersection of business and conservation. These include:

MarVivo Network: A blue carbon mangrove and marine conservation network within the Eastern Tropical Seascape, encompassing areas such as the Sea of Cortez and the Baja Peninsula.

InfiniteEARTH: A company specializing in developing and managing tropical conservation land banks, providing environmental offsets, and creating private-label corporate social responsibility (CSR) solutions for businesses worldwide.

EcoSmart Labs: A firm offering comprehensive solutions to help asset managers assess and address carbon risk.

LAEP Speaker Series: David Anderson, What Can Landscape Architecture Do for the Environment and Our Humanity

Lecture/Readings

About the Lecture How can we display genuine empathy, grace, and compassion toward ourselves and others – and the natural world around us? Humans are reliant on the environment for essential resources and services. In the symbiotic relationship between humans and nature, landscape architecture plays a unique and critical role that, through design, addresses the social needs, fundamental rights, and wellbeing of people, while stewarding care and renewal of ecological systems. Speaker Bio Dave is a Professional Practice Professor in the Department of Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning (LAEP) at USU where he has teaching and Extension assignments. Dave leads instruction of the department’s Introduction to Landscape Architecture course, the largest of its kind in the U.S. with over 1,000 students taught annually. He teaches University Connections to incoming freshmen and has taught Foundations of Sustainable Systems, Land Planning for Residential Development, co-taught the Leadership in Planning and Design – a Capstone studio for LAEP seniors, and currently instructs the Analysis and Design I studio.
