00:00:00.030 --> 00:00:01.440
>> My name is Gayle [assumed
spelling] Lala [phonetic spelling],

00:00:01.440 --> 00:00:06.620
and I'm a senior project manager at Greener
By Design right in the heart of New Brunswick.

00:00:06.620 --> 00:00:12.030
It's a consulting firm that primarily
is focused on environmental projects.

00:00:12.030 --> 00:00:14.870
Our trademark is Environmental Asset Management,

00:00:14.870 --> 00:00:17.600
and we have a variety of
very interesting clients.

00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:21.910
While we really don't have an average
client, they're usually a hodgepodge,

00:00:21.910 --> 00:00:27.010
but some of our biggest clients are large
terminal shippers that are interested

00:00:27.010 --> 00:00:32.310
in becoming more environmentally friendly
or a municipality that's interested

00:00:32.310 --> 00:00:35.740
in economic development or looking at incentives

00:00:35.740 --> 00:00:39.590
and different sustainability
measures for their community.

00:00:39.590 --> 00:00:46.030
My day-to-day is pretty hectic, and I never
know what can happen on a daily basis.

00:00:46.030 --> 00:00:51.320
It's usually on the fly, but usually
it encompasses conference calls

00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:57.900
with various clients or meetings with
clients that could be municipalities

00:00:57.900 --> 00:01:02.040
or corporations throughout New Jersey,
New York, and the tri-state area.

00:01:02.040 --> 00:01:07.740
Well, our office is open from 9 to
5, and I have the opportunity to kind

00:01:07.740 --> 00:01:12.890
of work a flexible schedule depending
on if we have events or conferences.

00:01:12.890 --> 00:01:18.720
Some of those events could be in Washington,
D.C. and include a lot of networking

00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:20.460
with public officials and so forth.

00:01:20.460 --> 00:01:24.790
So it's pretty flexible, but our
day-to-day emails, phone calls,

00:01:24.790 --> 00:01:27.610
meetings are usually between 9 to 5.

00:01:27.610 --> 00:01:33.070
It's definitely a catch phrase,
sustainability, going green or green washing,

00:01:33.070 --> 00:01:39.210
but in terms of sustainability it really
depends on what a personal objective is.

00:01:39.210 --> 00:01:44.210
It could be anything from low-hanging fruit
from just looking at simple things like gliding,

00:01:44.210 --> 00:01:50.630
or it could be looking at new technologies
or just looking at the whole portfolio

00:01:50.630 --> 00:01:54.450
of everything that you could possibly
look at for going sustainable.
