Bolek Strzelecki

Administrative Coordinator

Bolek serves as the Administrative Coordinator for Material Return.  As a New Yorker, his epicurious background forms the foundation of his work ethos: Project and program management at the periphery — people, experience, design, and service at the core.

With 7 years of experience in the ground-up development of business and company operations for two different Seattle-based startups committed to transparency and sustainability in both food and tech product sectors, Bolek now views North Carolina as his new frontier. He joined Material Return with the determination to push the region’s textile industry into the next phase of growth within Circularity — where they turn textile waste into gold like a modern-day alchemist.

When his time isn’t about spreadsheets and emails, he likes to pepper in comedy podcasts in between all the cooking, gardening, and traveling he does with his family and friends.
