"Having started my career at Hypertherm Associates as an engineer, I was first inspired by our passion to innovate products and solutions for our customers, taking on some of the largest challenges in industrial manufacturing. Along the way, my inspiration has been increasingly drawn from our culture of associate-ownership, focused on creating long-term value for our customers and partners, our associates, and the communities in which we live.”

When that same energy and dedication to improvement motivates our Associates to volunteer in the communities in which we live and work, the true power of the Hypertherm Associates ownership model is on full display and is truly inspiring.”

“What initially attracted me to Hypertherm Associates and continues to inspire me is our triple bottom line mission of People, Planet, and Profit. I really appreciate how we take a long-term view on the decisions we make, from our strategy to the products and services we provide and then the financial stability we strive for. This, coupled with our Associate ownership mindset and our focus on continuous improvement, really creates a powerful combination that allows us to build on the strength of our heritage.”

There’s a collaborative nature, customer-centric vision, and philosophy of planning and managing for the years, rather than months, ahead.”
