Hey everyone! Welcome to my first blog post at 56 Stories.
My name is Nancy Liang and I currently work in the Trinity Kansas City office. I grew up in China and moved here for college. In May, I graduated from University of Kansas with a degree in Chemical Engineering. Shortly after walking down the hill (KU graduation tradition), I joined Trinity and started my environmental consulting experience.
Before I started at Trinity, I didn’t know the existence of 56 Stories (hopefully you will find it helpful!). Coming from Chemical Engineering background, I didn’t get much exposure to environmental consulting during college. The limited knowledge about environmental regulations is from the Introduction to Environmental Engineer class I took as an elective and Introduction to Environmental Law class I audited last semester. With these backgrounds, I still felt overwhelmed the first week of work. Environmental consulting is definitely different from chemical process design/simulation. I learned so much on the job and from my colleagues in the past several months about air permitting, modeling and other environmental regulations. I hope you will enjoy reading the blogs and gain a better understanding whether Trinity/environmental consulting is a good fit for you.
Lastly, I’d like to share the story behind my user name “UltimateNewbie”… I started playing ultimate Frisbee the same week I started at Trinity. A good friend of mine introduced me to the sport, and so far, I had a great time playing on the summer and fall leagues. I learned some basic throws and strategies, but I am nowhere close to be a pro with an impeccable hammer throw. I am a newbie in ultimate and also in environmental consulting world. There is lots of space to learn and grow, and I am excited to see what the future holds for me!
I will try to update the blog frequently and thanks for your time : )
