Hey IG Fam! It’s been a while since we’ve been active on here but we are staying busy as usual. Going on our 16th year of serving south Florida, we thought it would be a good time for a quick reintroduction of Lady Green Founder. 👷🏻♀️ More to come!
Michelle founded Lady Green Recycling in 2010 with a goal to protect the environment and help people and businesses through waste reduction in our communities. Coming from an entrepreneurial family, Michelle always knew she would one day start her own business doing something she is passionate about.
Michelle brings 23 years of management experience, including 16 years of executive management. Prior to founding LGR, Michelle was part of a successful start-up company that is now a leader in the U.S. for deploying greenhouse gas reduction projects and renewable energy projects. Michelle received a Bachelor’s of Science in Business Administration from Jones College in 2007 and later pursued her Master’s in Environmental Studies at Florida International University. During her first year in graduate school, Michelle found much inspiration from her professors, peers and education, that she felt it was time to launch her recycling dream. She decided to drop out of graduate school and fully invest her time and resources into creating her vision. Understanding the real value in education, Michelle continued to ‘sit’ in classes to learn the material without having to pay the cost of tuition.
In her free time, Michelle enjoys spending time with her family, friends and pets as well as training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. Michelle is a black belt who enjoys to compete and holds a World Championship title.
We would love to learn about you so please feel free to share a little bit about yourself! 👋 💚♻️
