Ashley Jenkins, Recycling Educator/Coordinator for Beaufort County

Ashley Jenkins is a Lowcountry native who loves to inspire, create, and remind people that a throwaway society is not a sustainable society. She began her career in recycling in 2016 as the Recycling Educator/Coordinator for Beaufort County. As the Recycling Coordinator, she has made it her goal to get people to Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle by creating awareness through education and engaging adults and youth of all ethnicity. With different outreach techniques and tools, she has been able to change the conversation about recycling with the help of colleagues and local organizations. By networking with Young Professionals of SWANA (Solid Waste Association of North America), CRA (Carolina Recycling Association), and Keep America Beautiful has allowed her to grow professionally as a Coordinator. Recycling education programs and social media tools are ways that Ashley strives to increase recycling participation, decrease contamination, and inspire a sustainable Beaufort County.
