In 2009, Janice Evans had a vision that became Solvent Blue.
Fresh from departing a lucrative Wall Street firm and along the winding path of the Appalachian Trail, Evans imagined a way to fuse her work experience with her love and concern for the environment.
Upon completing the 2,100-mile journey, Evans moved to the west coast and set up a one-person consulting firm in her tiny studio apartment. Evans developed strategic partnerships with boutique technology firms, offering them a way to make small but meaningful adjustments to become eco-savvy and lower overhead costs. Building credibility and clientele, Evans secured greater opportunities and, most importantly, moved the business out of her home.
For over a decade now, Solvent Blue has and continues to provide premium consulting services for small businesses and large corporations seeking to "green" their workplace culture. "Going green is not something we at Solvent Blue take lightly," says Evans. "It means taking substantive action."
Action includes evaluating daily client operations and designing alternatives to bring about long-term impacts. It also involves emergency planning to mitigate disaster-related risk.
Evans, along with the fifteen other members of the Solvent Blue team, still makes time to enjoy the outdoors. Team members receive additional time off to explore wild spaces as they see fit, returning refreshed and ready for any challenge. Evans believes that "it's important to go into nature so you know what's at stake."
