She implements strategic initiatives to improve quality of life in Lower North Philadelphia through coordination of APM's Neighborhood Advisory Committee (NAC) and Sustainable Communities Initiative (SCI). Ms. Palombo obtained her B.A. in Growth and Structure of Cities from Bryn Mawr College with a focus on GIS and equitable development. She has a 16-year background working in the food industry and has garnered accolades for working to increase food security in Philadelphia.

Bridget is currently helping to lead a Walkability Engagement Plan in collaboration with Philadelphia's Department of Public Health.
