What do you enjoying the most about living and working in the LaGrange area?
"Living in Willowbrook, it is not too difficult to get downtown, Chicago. There are many things to do in the city, such as enjoy the lakeshore and beaches, view various museums, Sears Tower, the Hancock Building as well as observatories. Also, the area is much cleaner than where I moved from. Another great feature of living in this area is that from a cultural perspective, there are strong community ties. It is not difficult to find specific schools and places of worship."
Relocated from Torrance, CA.
Why did you join EMD? "It's a good company and a good place to work. There is a lot of opportunity to grow."
What were you doing before EMD? "I was working for Honeywell."
