Trenesa S. Danuser

Vice President of Global Communications The Estee Lauder Companies, Inc.

"I love the transparency and accessibility of the wellness, eco-chic brand Origins and the authentic sustainability story of Ojon. These brands have been PR-driven since their inceptions, and that really excites me about the possibilities. Now that green is the new black, there are tremendous strategic partnerships with like-minded companies that I am excited to explore on behalf of both of these brands."

Her global strategy development and communications responsibilities span the 27 countries and territories where Origins is sold, including Japan, Hong Kong, Spain, France, Australia and the United Kingdom.
