Year Graduated: 2019 Concentration: Operations Management Job Title: Director, Planning & Fabrication Current Company: Ravelin Defense Where did you do your internship: Zimmerman Metals What is your favorite advanced manufacturing technology? Robotic welding and additive manufacturing What skill/idea/process that you learned in school has helped you the most in your career so far? Learning how to view a business as an interconnected system rather than as a collection of individual departments. The program exposed me to the critical functions that drive manufacturing success including operations, supply chain, planning, project management, quality, and finance which has allowed me to be flexible and successfully transition between roles in project management, planning and scheduling, and operations leadership. One of the biggest lessons I took from the program was the importance of making decisions based on the impact to the entire value stream, not just a single department. That mindset has helped me lead greenfield manufacturing operations, drive continuous improvement initiatives, and align cross-functional teams toward common goals. Throughout my career, I've relied on the principles learned in the AMIS program to solve complex operational challenges, improve performance, and lead large teams focused on delivering quality products to customers on time. For future graduates, I believe the ability to understand how all business functions work together is one of the most valuable skills you can develop, regardless of where your career path leads.
