I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Sr. Project Leader Sustainable Procurement at Kohler Co.! 🎉 I would like to take a moment to recognize the incredible support network I have at Kohler Company that has made this accomplishment possible. A special thank you to Rachel Gasparick Mallory Ballard Kayla Riege Stephanie Soendker Camilo Vargas Tony Herbert Laura Ying for putting trust in me and providing me with opportunities to drive impact so early in my career.

We are excited to share that 2023 AWESOME Scholar, Christine Truong, recently presented her research, “An Ecological View of Supply Chain Resilience in High-Volume UAV Manufacturing,” at the 2024 Academic Research Symposium during CSCMP’s EDGE Supply Chain Conference & Exhibition! Such an amazing accomplishment. Congrats, Christine!
Excited to present my research at the 2024 Academic Research Symposium CSCMP’s EDGE Supply Chain Conference & Exhibition™ ✨ The presentation were highlighted on AWESOMELeaders.org newsletter this week! Standing among so many brilliant minds, I’m reminded that my work is just a small part of a vast sea of knowledge, but it’s a contribution I’m deeply passionate about. My presentation, "An Ecological View of Supply Chain Resilience in High-Volume UAV Manufacturing", reflects meaningful years of learning and collaboration with the NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration High Volume Team, guided by the insights of amazing mentors, Dr. Ila Manuj, Dr. Kamesh Namuduri, and Dr. Terrance Pohlen , colleagues, and industry leaders since I first began my research during undergraduate years. I’m grateful to everyone who has supported and inspired me along the way, and I look forward to continuing to explore how we can make supply chains more resilient. Thank you all for your guidance and encouragement. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Daniel Guide, Dr. Kevin Linderman, and Autumn Hanley for making this learning opportunity become possible for this little girl! Thank you Michelle Dilley for the latest AWESOMELeaders.org newsletter :D Tracie Shannon Donna Palumbo-Miele
