SILT welcomes Teresa Kurtz as Operations Specialist in charge of administrative support and finances.

Teresa grew up in southeastern Minnesota but has called Iowa her home for 30 years.  She is a graduate of the University of Minnesota with a B.S. in Home Economics/Human Ecology.  Teresa’s passion for the environment and sustainability took root with her field work at Appalachia Science in the Public Interest in the mid-80s, leading to a long career in the government and nonprofit sectors.

Teresa’s experience includes serving as an executive director of a statewide recycling nonprofit and as a development team member of a major nonprofit serving children in Cedar Rapids.
