Sophia Danenberg

Early Life

Danenberg was born in 1972 in Okinawa, Japan, to the name Sophia Marie Scott[1]. At age 1, her family moved to the United States. As a toddler, her family moved back to Japan, where they worked as sugar cane farmers. Danenberg once again moved to the suburbs of Chicago, Homewood, at age 6[2]. She graduated Homewood-Flossmoor High School in 1990 after participating on the school's track team[3].

Initially, Sophia Danenberg studied Applied Math and Chemistry at Harvard University. After traveling to Thailand, Danberg switched to an undergraduate degree in Environmental Sciences and Public Policy when she saw the possibilities of the juxtaposition of the natural environment and economy. Danenberg graduated Magna cum Laude and was one of the first five students to graduate from this program. Upon graduation, Danberg was a Fulbright Fellow at Keio University in Tokyo, where she first began to rock climb[4].

Career

Sophia Danenberg started her career at United Technologies Research Center, managing energy and indoor air quality projects. In 2003, Danenberg became a Senior Engineer for the Green Engine Program at Pratt & Whitney. In 2005, she joined the EHS division[5]. In this position, she discovered the company was unknowingly using flame retardant banned by the European Union. The discovery lead to a change in how industry handles dangerous chemical bans[6].

As of 2009, Danenberg was recruited to Boeing to develop their International, Environmental, health, and safety (EHS) policy analysis program. Additionally, her role includes coordinating advocacy input for EHS outside of the United States[7].
