HIGHLIGHTS
Building tour with Marty
Attended one hour tour of SfN building for new employees with Marty Saggese (Executive Director of SfN). He gave an in-depth presentation on the history of this HQ's location and site development and design. In 2007, SfN's building earned the Gold LEED-EB Certification (Leadership in Energy and Environment Design for Existing Buildings) awarded by the US Green Building Council. The building was designed to be as green as possible by implementing high percentage of natural light, indoor air circulation and recyclable materials as furniture.

Went to a press inspection for 2014 Media Kit (3,000 copies) at the Westland Enterprises with Mary (Production Manager). Spent half the day inspecting the color and used check list to make sure everything came out looking good. Later in the day we were given a tour of the facility with Carmen the Director of Business Development.
