MEET THE STAFF  Kieran Cahalan, Aquisitions Manager Kieran is back at The Green Project after leaving in 2004 to explore graduate school opportunities in the frozen tundra of Minneapolis, MN. He returned to New Orleans to assist his siblings in rebuilding his absentee parents' home. He was sucked back in to The Green Project family, and now we are not going to let him go!  Angie Green, Executive Director Before joining The Green Project, Angie served as the development director at the Neighborhood Housing Services, an organization that assists first-time homebuyers. Three years ago she moved to Algiers Point with her two large dogs, Milo & Sadie, and two fat cats, Dinner & LuLu. She rides her bike to work only on cool, sunny days and is eager to convert her car to run on bio-diesel.  Karen Kempf, Recycle for the Arts Program Manager Native to New Orleans, KK is Recycle for the Arts' biggest fan. She single-handedly raised R4A up from the dark depths of depression after turbulent floodwaters knocked it down and nearly ended its life. When she's not pricing and sorting donations or reorganizing the R4A storefront, you can find her planning wicked awesome R4A events and super groovy environmental ed workshops. Creative re-use, sustainable design, and school busses drive her wild! LESS WASTE, MORE ART!  Erin Genrich, Warehouse Once upon a time, Erin was a trucker, a carnie, and a postal employee. Hailing from Stevens Point, WI., she's taking a break as a UNO student, and plans to dabble in teaching before ending her days as a pirate-slaying cowgirl.  Christal White, Assistant to the Executive Director Christal has yet to give us her bio, but it will definitely contain something about slaying cowgirls.  Jamie Midgley, Warehouse Store Manager Anyone wishing to make themselves immortal by painting a picture of wretchedness would be wasting their time knocking on Jamie's door. He hails from the other side of the pond - a country which signed the Kyoto Agreement, has free universal health care, a minimum wage of $11 per hour and allows gay people to marry. Jamie spends most of his time at the Green Project crushing cans, tending to his pitiful competition onions and reminding his colleagues that football is a game played using a ROUND ball and ones FEET.  Velma McGothlin Having been a typical Texan all her life, Velma is now having fun and enjoying a better quality of life in New Orleans (and especially at The Green Project).  Alec Hamilton Alec likes sandwiches. A lot. Does anyone know anyone who delivers?  Yasmin Bowers Yasmin Bowers came from Altanta to New Orleans during January 2006 to pursue a Masters in Public Health at Tulane University. She decided to stick around after graduating in May 2007 to continue her quest for change in the City. She established her non-profit, Consciously Rebuilding, to address sustainable and affordable housing needs and joined the Green Project to support like-minded efforts.  Laura Paul, Volunteer Coordinator Once a volunteer herself, Laura hails from Montreal and came to New Orleans "for a week" two years ago to help out. Laura's turn-ons include sunsets, puppy dogs, and men with amnesia.  Hunter Terry, Lumber Yard Guy Hunter is a transplant from the Pacific Northwest.Outside of the lumberyard he seeks challenge and danger by toying with traffic on his rides to and from work on his bicycle. He was an eighth grade spelling champion. |
