Fennessey is one of six environmental specialists hired at SBDC university locations throughout the state. Before joining the Penn State SBDC, she worked as an environmental consultant for MTS Technologies, Inc., a small consulting firm in Johnstown. Its intent is to work with the SBDCs to look for ways to meet environmental compliance requirements and improve profitability by looking for ways to minimize waste and prevent pollution while reducing expenses by improving energy efficiency. We want to help small businesses work through any environmental issues they might have.
