Guiding Green, LLC
Leading the path to sustainability
About Us
Guiding Green, LLC was founded in early 2005 by Julie B. Manley.  Ms. Manley earned a Bachelor of Arts from Northwestern Universisty, Evanston, IL and a Master of Public Health from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI. She also is a Certified Hazardous Materials Manager (CHMM) by the Institute of Hazardous Materials Management.  Following ~10 years at Abbott Laboratories in manufacturing and environmental health, and safety functions, Ms. Manley founded Guiding Green, LLC to have a broader impact on sustainability in the global pharmaceutical industry.  While Guiding Green, LLC initially focused on green pharmaceutical science and it will always remain a high priority, the organization has expanded the scope of work to help integrate sustainable practices in the broader industrial enterprise.  Ms. Manley has authored several papers on the subject of sustainability and green chemistry and presented on related subjects.  See below for a sample of her work.
