This week, while Ali was in the field, Nikki spoke with Jessica Morell.
Jessica has held various positions in the automation industry, from distribution to consulting. Jessica shares her journey, starting with her electrical and computer engineering technology degree. After graduation, she joined an apprenticeship program at a regional distributor and kept learning and expanding her knowledge and her network to become a sought-after strategy consultant in the Industry 4.0 arena.
Both Nikki and Jessica discuss their similar paths in the automation industry and how they didn't initially realize the variety of roles available beyond traditional engineering.
They also touch on personal topics like managing burnout, and networking in industry associations.
