As stated on the Nashville Food Saver Challenge, The Nashville Mayor’s Office, Metro Nashville Department of Public Works’ Solid Waste Division, and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC)’s Nashville Food Waste Initiative partnered in January 2017 to challenge area restaurants to work to reduce their food waste over a 30-day time frame by taking five steps from a menu of options.  This challenge reoccurred in 2018 and 2019.  

For the 2019 event recognizing participants, I handled media coverage, both print and TV, and had all four local stations (WSMV, WTVF, WZT, WKRN) in attendance. Following the event, I helped monitor media coverage so that it could be sent to the client and shared on social media.
