The Cal Alumni Association (CAA) presents the first event in a new series featuring innovative UC Berkeley alumni who are trailblazing leaders in their industries. In this inaugural program, we present a conversation with Cal alum Jodi Russell ’96, Vice President R&D Cleaning and Professional Products at Clorox.

In her 22-year history in the consumer packaging sector, Jodi Russell has emerged as a leader in Clorox’s corporate-packaging sustainability agenda. Her proven track record of driving growth across multiple categories includes a current R&D responsibility for a product portfolio worth more than $2 billion. She received the Clorox “Optimism” Leadership award for her work in redefining what’s possible and inspiring her R&D organization to make it happen. Learn about Russell’s role in developing eco-friendly packaging. As the Official Cleaning and Disinfectant Product Partner of UC Berkeley, Clorox supports UC Berkeley’s efforts to engage the university community on social cause topics such as sustainability, social justice, and health and wellness.  

Janet Brady, lecturer and Distinguished Teaching Fellow at the UC Berkeley Haas School of Business, will host the conversation.  

A special networking opportunity for attendees will conclude the program.
