Our work environment is open and supportive, and the firm offers strong private-sector compensation packages. Redstone alumni have excelled at the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Google, and The Nature Conservancy, and have gone on to graduate programs at Stanford, Harvard, and Yale.

In New York City, Redstone facilitated a collaboration of the city’s top food assistance providers to help bring 10 million pounds of new food to neighborhoods where it’s needed most. In Costa Rica, the firm assisted the Linden Trust for Conservation and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation in permanently preserving over 1 million acres of critical terrestrial and marine habitat.
