Adam’s creative thinking, expertise, positive can-do attitude and professional drive made him an absolute pleasure to have on my team as Sr. I.E. He continually delivered results, went above and beyond in providing exceptional service and support, and showed genuine integrity and respect towards his team and partners. Adam is enthusiastic, personable and a great networker. His strengths in staying across issues, pro-actively offering solutions and ideas and being adept at all aspects of communications make him a valuable leader to any situation or team.

Adam continues to be a great asset to the University of Missouri. He is a member of our industrial advisory board, providing feedback and guidance to improve the curriculum. Through his role at Scholastic he has sponsored a range of Capstone Design projects that have provided great learning experiences for the graduating seniors. He has also taken time to come and present to our freshman introduction course about the opportunity in logistics for industrial engineers. Overall, Adam is an example of an excellent student/graduate from our program that continues to give back so that the next generation of students are prepared for the challenges that await them.
