About David Sayer
David Sayer is a charter member of the Beyond Plastics Alumni Network and coordinates its growing online community. He is a recent but devout student of the plastic pollution crisis and maintains educational and activist resources on the Beyond Plastics wiki (bit.ly/plasticwiki). Locally, he supports Sustainable Saratoga in his hometown of Saratoga Springs, N.Y., and coordinates community pickups and other Zero Waste activities.
While he has become a recognized 鈥渢rash vigilante鈥 in his community (@madplastic on Instagram), David is increasingly working at the keyboard to pressure state and federal lawmakers to support plastic pollution legislation and related climate protections. He bands together weekly with other Beyond Plastics supporters to drive initiatives that would stem the plastic tide at the source and safeguard vulnerable communities.
Outside of his engagement with Beyond Plastics, David is a consulting IT architect for Accenture, specializing in Microsoft modern workplace technologies. He is a father, husband, musician, cyclist, tennis player and expert low-waster.
