About Us
Crosswalk Labs is a start-up company whose mission is to make every
city-level decision a climate decision. We’ve seen firsthand how
well-informed choices that are grounded in data can shape communities and
affect the environment. With that in mind, we developed a system that saves
time by providing a detailed, peer-reviewed approach to emissions data
validated by atmospheric science – verifiable metrics that cities across
the country can rely on.
Our small team comprises former elected officials and data scientists who
are committed to supporting citizens and leaders in making thoughtful
decisions to help reduce emissions. We have an office in Flagstaff,
Arizona, though many of us choose to work a hybrid or remote schedule. We
recognize that each of us has different needs and desires in life and in
work, and our goal is to provide an environment where all Crosswalk
employees can thrive. To that end, we provide the tools and flexibility
required to balance the responsibilities of work and home, and we recognize
that looks different for everyone.
