Hazardous Waste Minimization
October 2011 marked the 20th anniversary of Ecolink’s sustainable operations. The company was founded in response to the Montreal Protocol and the ban of Class 1 Ozone Depleting Solvents and other toxic industrial chemicals.
As we embark on our next 20 years of providing safer, compliant chemicals, we’ve partnered with like-minded organizations and individuals.
Tuesday, February 14, 2012 – Valentine’s Day marked the beginning of our next chapter. We’ve worked closely with the American Marketing Association (AMA-Atlanta) to support GA DECA, a high school marketing program with over 10,000 students.
Last Friday, we recruited three AMA collegiate members for new product launch internships running through April 22 – Earth Day.
Meet the Interns
Chance Hood is a 2nd-year MBA student at Mercer University (Atlanta), graduating May 2012. Originally from Alabama, Chance earned his BBA in Marketing from the University of Montevallo in 2008. With a background in hospitality and insurance sales, he later joined Enterprise Rent-A-Car’s management trainee program. At Mercer, he’s maintained a 4.0 GPA and completed a sales strategy internship with Silverpop.
Chance is promoting Ecolink’s entry into mil-spec paints and coatings with support from Randolph Products. How can Randolph Products reduce hazardous waste? By offering the smallest batches (as low as 4 gallons) of legacy mil-spec paints and coatings, preventing large quantities from ending up as waste in landfills.
Courtney Rivkind is a junior at Emory University’s Goizueta Business School, pursuing a BBA in Finance and Film Media Management. Originally from Miami, Courtney founded DJ Courtney Enterprises in 2009 and is a prominent event DJ in Atlanta. She’s worked on marketing events with over 2,000 attendees and brings creative energy to her internship.
Jackie Hooper is a senior marketing major at Georgia College & State University, where she is VP of Membership for her AMA chapter. Passionate about sustainability and marketing, Jackie is thrilled to integrate both during her internship.
She represents Hubbard Hall, the oldest privately held chemical company in the U.S. How can Hubbard Hall reduce hazardous waste? With over 160 years of regulatory and chemical expertise, they solve complex problems and develop new low-impact chemical solutions.
