Cincinnati, Ohio, United States
Grew up in the Cincinnati, OH area and attended the University of Cincinnati where I received my MBA and civil/environmental engineering degree. While studying there I co-oped for 2 rotations at Kokosing Construction Company where I was a support Engineer. I then co-oped at GE Aerospace for 4 rotations where I worked in Environment, Health, and Safety. Upon graduation I accepted a full time position at GE Aerospace in their Operations Management Leadership Program (OMLP), with a focus on EHS. During the OMLP program I began studying at Penn State University for a Masters in Supply Chain and received this degree in 2016. After the OMLP program I took an operations role as a team leader in a development lab owning supervision of the operators, EHS and Facilities for the Turbine Airfoils Lean Lab. From there I went on to become a Lead Engineer focused on repairing combustors for commercial engines. I then moved onto a Senior Operations and Process Improvement Leader role in the Turbine Airfoils Lean Lab where I successfully relocated our shop to a new facility without any customer interruptions.
