Seminar Title:

What can I do with my EE or CompE degree at Lockheed Martin?

 

Abstract of Talk: Your ECE degree gives you a foundation to pursue nearly any engineering & technology job at Lockheed Martin, in areas you may be deeply familiar with and others you have never before considered (or knew existed!).  Lockheed encourages you to take ownership of your career, develop your technical and leadership toolkit, and immediately engage on exciting projects.

Personal

I try to enjoy as many hobbies as I can these days.  I have a pilots license and enjoy to fly around South Jersey and Northeastern PA.  I’ve been to 6 continents and love to travel, enjoy sailing on the Chesapeake Bay, golfing, and I try to find time to play the piano.  But more recently, I’ve been enjoying all the time I have at home with my 17 month old son.
