Robin has been working with the CU Environmental Center and CU Recycling since his sophomore year of college in 2014. Despite majoring in Religious Studies and History Robin saw sorting recycling at the campus recycling center as the perfect college job for him. Robin now helps manage the campus recycling center and zero waste events, working to ensure CU Boulder’s waste is disposed of as responsibly as possible. When he’s not dumpster diving or elbow deep in piles of trash Robin spends his working hours managing a team of 25 students at the campus recycling center. Robin’s biggest goal at work is to inform and empower his students so that they can leave CU Recycling with the same knowledge and confidence that he gained as a student. When not working Robin spends time cooking, biking and maintaining his small--but still too large--fountain pen collection. If you want to talk trash Robin can be reached at Robin.Poley@colorado.edu or 303-735-5799.
