Coffee Klatch – University Northlake Spring 2024 (Members Only)

Nancy Olah Thanks Stacia Neugent with GreerWalker!

Many thanks to Stacia Neugent for helping one of my former students land his first real job in accounting!

Landing your first job out of college is never easy. I reached out to Stacia Neugent (GreerWalker LLP) a few weeks ago to see if she could help Ian Nevillle (one of my former mock trial students who is now a USC grad), who was seeking an entry level position in accounting or finance. Stacia promptly responded and arranged an interview for Ian with GreerWalker. I was delighted to learn yesterday that Ian has accepted an offer from GreerWalker. Many thanks, Stacia, for helping Ian on his first step in what I know will be a long and productive career!

I’d like to thank Janeen Miller-Hogue (The Miller-Hogue Law Firm) for helping one of my clients on a transaction that I wasn’t able to handle. Many thanks, Janeen! Your quick response was so appreciated! – Nancy Olah

August Luncheon Tour of the Innovation Barn

Submitted by Elizabeth Hamilton, Progressive AE

Tuesday, August 10th CREW Charlotte participated in a tour and lunch at Charlotte’s Innovation Barn, 932 Seigle Avenue. After a brief introduction to the principles of Circular Economies Amy Aussiker, of Envision Charlotte, provided a tour of Charlotte’s new circular economy hub.

 

Members were introduced to:

– Crown Town Compost’s soldier fly facility where food waste fuels new growth cycles.

– How reclaimed aluminum cans are sorted, compacted, and baled for recycling.

– How plastic waste can be recycled into filament for 3d printers and bricks.

– How glass bottles can be pulverized to sand (with demonstration assistance from Scarlett Powell) for use in concrete, landscaping, or for the creation of new glass products.

– A Learning Kitchen where people can learn how to reduce food waste, and use the newest energy-efficient appliances (such as induction cooktops).

– A showroom for Carolina urban Lumber, where furniture made from fallen Charlotte trees start their new use.

– Vertical Aquaponics, and how aquaponic farming of fish coincides with soldier fly larvae and providing fertilizer to grow vegetables.

 

Members then enjoyed lunch in the RePour Taproom.

Nancy Olah – Helping other members is the essence of being a CREW member

I’d like to convey a special thanks to Shawn McMillan (McMillan PLLC) for helping me with two recent transactions in Charleston that were very time intensive and had begun to interfere with commitments I’d made to other clients.

Being a CREW member is all about collegiality and helping out other CREW members. I’d like to convey a special thanks to Shawn McMillan (McMillan PLLC) for helping me with two recent transactions in Charleston that were very time intensive and had begun to interfere with commitments I’d made to other clients. Shawn was able to enlist the support of Amber Westerduin, one of his associates who is a CREW Charleston member, to take over for me on both matters. It’s never easy to admit you need assistance, but I was most grateful to Shawn and Amber for the way we were jointly able to transition the responsibility for these matters in a smooth and professional manner that was seamless to the client.
