"First of all I would just like to say that I miss Ecosa and think about you often! I have been working at Bluegrass PRIDE for almost two years now - which I can't really believe. At PRIDE, I manage a program called the Live Green Lexington Partner program. I spend most of my days working with businesses and apartment complexes to help them start recycling programs, improve the water quality that is running off their property, and increase energy efficiency. I feel that I use the knowledge and experiences I gained at Ecosa everyday! Although I am not doing design in the sense of architecture or interiors, I feel that I design ways for our Lexington businesses and apartments to think more about how they impact their local environment. We have been heavily involved in two watershed festivals here in Lexington trying to bring awareness to the fact that EVERYONE lives in a watershed and we work a lot with public events in Lexington to help them reduce their footprint. It has been a great learning experience! I definitely speak highly of my experience at Ecosa to everyone who will listen!"
