Hi! My name is Jenn Harris and I am an industrial engineering manager at UPS in Los Angeles where I oversees the consolidation and movement of packages in and out of Los Angeles by air and ground. I graduated from Cal Poly- San Luis Obispo in 2003 with a BS in Industrial Engineering and a MS in Engineering. I have been involved with SWE since my freshman year in college and have held a various positions including Cal Poly Section President, RCNE, RCR, Los Angeles Section President, Lt.

Hello! My name is Kerrie Greenfelder and I am the Lt. Governor for FY09. I am a licensed chemical engineer and have worked for CDM, Inc., in Albuquerque, New Mexico, since 2001. I have been involved with SWE-Central New Mexico (CNM) in various officer capacities and am currently the Section Representative.

I went to school at the University of Kansas and am a Jayhawk fanatic. During the college basketball season, you’ll find me glued to the TV, rooting for the boys. In my free time, I run a book club, a supper club, and enjoy hiking in the mountains around New Mexico. I am married to Matt and have a crazy cat named Kitty-Kitty.

I am studying Mechanical Engineering at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and plan to graduate this coming spring. I am very excited to be one of Region B’s RCRs this year. In the Cal Poly SWE section, I have previously served as Publications Director (2009), Team Tech Director (2008), Internal Marketing Director (2007), and a Team Tech member (2007) . If I am not studying or participating in extracurriculars at school I like to go for a swim or spend time outdoors. I love to travel and I hope one day to see most of the world.

I am a senior in biological engineering at Utah State University. I am working concurrently on my bachelor’s degree as well as my master’s degree. This is my fourth year in SWE. I have attended conferences in Las Vegas (2007), Baltimore (2008), and Albuquerque; and I absolutely loved going to them. The best thing about SWE is networking; meeting the professionals and other collegiates in the Society is the best part. This summer, I got a dog and got married. If homework isn’t taking up my time, then you can bet either the dog or the husband is taking up my time. But when I do find those rare moments to myself, you’ll probably find me reading, on the internet checking email or blogging, playing racquetball, or watching an awesome movie or tv show.

I am a senior in Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering at Utah State University and have been a member of SWE for 4 years now. Last year I was the Region Collegiate Representative for Region B. I served as vice president of our section to 2 years, and in 2006-2007, I was also the publicity chairman at USU. I am an active member of Engineering Student Council at Utah State. Outside of school I love just hanging out with my friends. I love being outside and during the summers I coach a 10 and under girls’ softball team. It’s probably my favorite thing to do.
