Since Emellie O\\u2019Brien\'s first days in production, she knew there was a way for the role of sustainability on-set to go beyond basic waste management and recycling. She got her start at the NYU Tisch Film program and not long after graduation she landed her first job as a \\u201cGreen Steward\\u201d with Big Beach Films in 2011. Her early years of dedication to green practices and passion for the environment on-set is what earned her the nickname \\u201cEarth Angel\\u201d from fellow crew members over the walkie, and to this day is still what production colleagues call her whenever she is on set. By 2013 EOB founded Earth Angel and turned it into a scalable model that has since inspired the entertainment industry and significantly reduced its environmental impact.

Earth Angel has helped films and series avoid 8,500 metric tons of greenhouse gases, divert over 4,800 tons of waste, and donate over 125,000 meals to the local communities. Their client roster includes The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Spielberg\'s The Post, Emmy-winner The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Lin Manuel Miranda\\u2019s In the Heights. Earth Angel is headquartered in New York with offices in Los Angeles and Atlanta.
