In the classroom / NYC04 / The intellect
“Sustainability only works when it survives contact with the supply chain.”
As a founder, professor, and sustainability consultant, Dyandra connects materials and manufacturing to strategy and margin. Her work asks better questions—about sourcing, textiles, cost, and the resilient future brands need to build now.
