Heather:

Hello class and professor! My name is Heather, I live in west central Florida. I recently have taken the position of Life Safety Coordinator for a local hospital. Previously my only experience in EHS was 3 years as an EHS assistant for a recycling company. Some of my future goals include completing my masters (currently in my final 2 courses!), learning as much as I can in my new role and potentially become the director of plant operations for the hospital.

Part II:

Currently we dispose of solid waste in the dumpster at my husbands shop once a week. We do not currently recycle because the community recycling dumpster was removed and the only pickup service in my area does not pickup recycling. I do reuse/repurpose items when I can and we are not composting food scraps, majority of our food scraps go to the chickens. I do try to minimize waste in different ways like buying unpackaged fresh fruits and vegetables or buying things in bulk and using glass/plastic storage jars.
