Bio
Evangelos Kalogirou
I have had the pleasure of being Josh's peer the past few years, and completed countless projects and assignments with Josh. He is always willing to lend a hand to a fellow peer in need. Josh has excellent group and technical skills that will adapt to any environment. He is a hard working individual who rubs off on those around him!

While working with Josh at AGY during his internship in our Operations Engineering group, I was able to witness first hand his incredible work ethic and deep desire to learn. He used his strong background in design and problem solving skills, and was able to flex when needed to get the job done with little to no oversight required. Josh was a great team player and a pleasure to work with at AGY, and I have no doubt that he will be a great asset to every team he works with in the future.
