Bio
Michael Daniels
I managed Marcus as part of a Process Engineering team at Ames Rubber. He is very intelligent, a natural problem solver, relentlessly curious, loyal and reliable. He is very proactive in identifying improvement opportunities and communicating thoughts and ideas with management and his colleagues. He takes coaching and advice well, and strives every day to grow and improve. In the right setting and culture, the sky is the limit in terms of the contributions he can make within an organization. It has been a pleasure to mentor and manage Marcus.
Adam Bindas, Ph.D.
Marcus is an incredibly detail oriented engineer. Impeccable ability to recall specific, pertinent data and information. When dovetailed with a practical understanding of chemical engineering I think he makes a compelling case to be part of any team. I enjoyed working with him over the last couple years in a variety of settings.
