He received his Master of Public Administration degree from Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs, with a concentration in Urban and Social Policy.

Prior to joining CGEP, Mr. Karl was an Associate with the Rockefeller Foundation’s Food Initiative where he worked to advance food-based interventions in American healthcare systems.
