Working at the Columbus Amsterdam Business Improvement District over the years I have developed an understanding of dynamics between Businesses, Community, and the BID. This has allowed me to have a connection to the area and be able to engage the community and the neighborhood in events to bring awareness of each other.

Madeline Fields began working with the Columbus-Amsterdam BID after graduating from Barnard College in 2025. Madeline works on mapping the condition of trees under the care of the CABID, to ensure the continued success of the BID's beautification and greening initiatives. They are passionate about environmental justice, community outreach, and supporting the local businesses of Bloomingdale. In their free time, Madeline enjoys playing violin and guitar.
