Hi All,

 

I am very excited for the opportunity to be a part of this passionate organization. In 2009, I graduated from Marquette University having earned by Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing and started my career as Brand Manager at Fashion Angels Enterprises, a wholesale toy company. After a year of being in the workforce I set out to find a company that would allow me to work creatively while making an impact within the community. I believe I have found that balance with WasteCap and I’d like to thank everyone for welcoming me with open arms!

 

Looking forward to a successful and productive year,  

 

Victoria
