Her journey to Waste Pro began after earning her undergraduate degree at Emory University in Atlanta. She then pursued a master\u2019s degree from the University of Central Florida and a Ph.D. in Communication from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. After completing her doctoral work, Emily was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Communication at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, where her role combined teaching, research, and writing. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy husband and I were looking at returning home to Central Florida from Virginia. I wanted to pivot from higher education to a full-time proposal writing position and was hoping to find a company with a local presence. Waste Pro, with its <a href=\"https:\/\/wasteadvantagemag.com\/waste-pro-named-2nd-largest-family-and-privately-owned-company-in-central-florida\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">headquarters in Longwood<\/a>, felt like the perfect fit.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She discovered a unique opportunity to build something that was much needed: a library of standardized proposal materials that could be tailored for use across the company\u2019s multi-state footprint, coupled with assistance to local field teams as they implemented these materials in their municipal bids. The freedom to design the proposal program from the ground up was very appealing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Emily&#8217;s skill set encompasses research, writing, editing, and project management. Coming from her academic background, she approached the work of this new role from the standpoint of building a framework for municipal marketers to use when responding to Requests for Proposals (RFPs). <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wasteprousa.com\/ht\/fatra-pro-fason\/\">Waste Pro has empowered her<\/a> to create with a wide latitude, experiment with implementing processes, and build a foundation that is utilized company-wide for proposal writing. Emily shared that she appreciates the open-endedness of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wasteprousa.com\/ht\/lidechip\/\">managers<\/a> involved and being able to look at things strategically to see where things need to be molded and shaped to serve the bid process as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, having been with the company for the last two years, she reflects on all that has happened in such a short time. \u201cMy role continues to evolve beyond assisting with individual proposals to include reviewing and revising municipal contracts. I enjoy the fact that no two days are the same, and I love the fast-paced nature of the work. I learn something new every day, so I am never bored\u2014and I don\u2019t think that will change anytime soon,\u201d shared Emily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wasteprousa.com\/ht\/lidechip\/tracy-meehan\/\" data-type=\"leadership\" data-id=\"7522\">Tracy Meehan<\/a>, Corporate Communications Director, acknowledges Emily&#8217;s work, stating, \u201cEmily has brought a level of organization, in-depth research, and knowledge that provides consistency and tailoring to each market in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wasteprousa.com\/ht\/jwenn-vil-ou\/\">12-state footprint<\/a>. Her contributions allow our field teams to not only showcase our strengths but share Waste Pro\u2019s story with clarity and confidence in a way that resonates with our current and prospective collection partners.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Communications Department added Rachel Willis, another Technical Writer, last year, further expanding what the team can offer not only to marketers but also to other departments. Emily expressed her gratitude for how she and Rachel collaborate and rely heavily on each other for their projects, enjoying the camaraderie they share to improve this growing segment of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year, Emily and her husband, Kevin, a computer science professor at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.waste360.com\/waste-recycling\/waste-pro-joins-forces-with-ucf-to-lead-campus-waste-and-recycling-initiatives\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">University of Central Florida<\/a>, welcomed their first child, Sarah. Emily expressed her sincere appreciation for Waste Pro, sharing fondly that the company has given her as much as she has contributed. \u201cI am thankful for the opportunity to enhance the marketing process and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wasteprousa.com\/ht\/nan-kominote-a\/\">serve not only my community<\/a> but also neighborhoods and municipalities across the company\u2019s 12-state footprint. Balancing motherhood with this dynamic role makes this a joyful\u2014and full-time\u2014role in my life. I go from reading and marking up contract language during the day to making up new verses to \u201cWheels on the Bus\u201d in the evenings. Both roles stretch my creativity in the best possible ways, and I think this duality makes me a better mother and a better writer. I\u2019m grateful that Sarah will grow up seeing that your career can be a key part of a rich and fulfilling life.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For Immediate Release&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Media Contact: Joy Kurtz&nbsp;&nbsp; Corporate Communications Manager&nbsp;media@wasteprousa.com&nbsp; LONGWOOD, FL \u2013 September 29, 2025 &#8211; Emily Brennan Moran, Waste Pro\u2019s Lead Technical Writer, has brought a unique perspective to her role, shaped by her experience in higher education.
