The ABQ Accent

Megan Holcomb, Recycling Coordinator, CABQ Solid Waste
 
Starting as an intern at 15, Megan has worked in City government for quite some time, and she brings a genuine concern for community to her work every day. Between interests in sustainability and communications, her work is wide-reaching and reflects her creative abilities as well as her deep understanding of government resources. Megan and her team are trying to accomplish a number of goals through the revamped Keep Albuquerque Beautiful program, both educational and logistical in people’s day-to-day lives. As big fans of the Oneabqvolunteers.com website, she and her staff utilize this to engage the community in addition to her specialty designing wider communication strategies. I was excited to learn that tours of the recycling facility are offered and not surprised that Megan is so passionate about supporting SW staff. Did you know we have 250 SW drivers working across the city, or that you can get a Recycle Coach?!
Much to learn and so much to appreciate about Megan and her unique role in our City in this episode. I’m so grateful for her and her work. Enjoy!
