What do you enjoy most about being in your industry?
I think something I enjoy most is how complicated it is. As a supply chain major doing procurement, there are tons of different things I could be procuring. Airplane parts, however, have a lot of compliance things, government regulations, and general factors to look out for.
Being in the aerospace field, I was really able to get a lot of exposure to everything that's out there and just how complicated it is.
