Malini grew up in beautiful small-town Maryland, where she rarely thought about the environment. Then she moved to a concrete jungle, decided to study environmental engineering, and has since not spent a day without dwelling on technology, policy, and the environment. Unsurprisingly, she likes to write about the intersections of those (three) spheres. After graduating from Columbia University, she promptly moved out to San Francisco to put her degree to use in air quality consulting.
