I am a first generation immigrant and a fully naturalized U.S. Citizen.  My expertise is in analytical chemistry and education but I have took time off to volunteer at an NGO in Ethiopia named Pastoralist Concern and am currently teaching and helping write policy for Amoud University. I have also been a part of Amoud Foundation fundraising to build hospitals and also fund the University. My mentor and I started our own consulting firm that assisted our clients from formulation to ISO 9001 and ISO 17025 certification.  So I am fully schooled on the industry of manufacturing.  I would say I am cordial and introverted and tend to deescalate situations at work if I can.  But, I am also very ambitious and completely honest.  So, if an employee, colleague, or supervisor's story is not adding up I will address it in the moment.  I am not afraid of uncomfortable conversations it is just part of life.  My core tenant is WHY.  I am a curious person so I read a lot about physics, the egyptian pyramids, the economy, and history because usually you can find a pattern, except in physics and the possibly advanced race of Egyptians before an extinction level event happened.  I do not believe all of these things and stay open minded and am willing to change my opinion when presented with hard evidence and admit I was wrong.  That is the thing about science, each generation thinks certain things are setteled science but a new discovery either disproves the former theory or modifies it in some way.  That is how I look at the world.  I would like to thank you for your time and consideration.

Best Regards,
