New Clean Memphis Education team members Michelle Cowan and Gus Gatlin
The Clean Memphis team is excited to announce two new additions to our Education team. Michelle Cowan came on as our new Director of Education at the beginning of August, and Gus Gatlin joined the team as a full-time environmental science educator earlier this summer.
Gus comes to us with a Bachelor of Science in Education from the University of Memphis and a wealth of knowledge and experience. As a former science teacher, he has a passion for teaching environmental education, and he is currently working on lots of exciting new activities for our middle and high school students this school year.
Michelle also brings years of instructional and curriculum development experience to the education team. A veteran of the nonprofit sector, she has also worked extensively in community and economic development in Memphis as well as Arlington, VA. Under her leadership, our Education team is poised to make a remarkable impact on Shelby County students this year.
